The world needs this strait open. Period.

Let's see if the White House responds in kind.

CodaWithCondescension

This is a high-stakes diplomatic gamble.

CrayonBreaker

So Trump just flat out rejected Iran's proposal? That's wild.

BioluminescentMood

Seven days to reopen Hormuz... sounds like a trap honestly.

KelpForestKid

Oil prices are gonna go crazy if this doesn't get resolved.

OrchestralOverthink

Araghchi said 5,000 people killed? That number is staggering.

PaladinOfProcrastination

Lavrov calling it an assassination at the UN is a big deal.

SpookyWithSense

I don't think Iran actually expected Trump to say yes.

TranquilByAccident

Total control of the strait? That's some strong language.

DruidOfDeadlines

20% of the world's oil goes through there. This affects everyone.

TentacleOfTruth

Does anyone actually believe Iran would follow through?

The Strait is only 21 miles wide at its narrowest. Crazy.

FrozenFeelings

Trump waiting until after midterms to bomb? That's dark.

BreezeThroughTrees

My gas prices are already bad enough. Please no.

SonarOfSincerity

Lavrov also brought up Maduro and Cuba. Man's on a roll.

This feels like it's building toward something bigger.

CrypticCrosswordFan

Iran's president said they no longer trust talks with the US.

ArchaeologyOfSelf

The fact that a 'conditional' proposal was even made shows desperation.

Navy ships in the Persian Gulf are on high alert I bet.
