Less than 24 hours after voicing optimism a deal was close to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, President Donald Trump swung back to lashing out against the Iranian regime, casting doubt on its ability to strike a meaningful deal to end the war, APA reports citing CNN.

“Iranian Leadership is unbelievably duplicitous!” Trump wrote on Truth Social Monday morning. “They ask for a meeting, some would say ‘beg,’ talks begin, with more scheduled in the immediate future, and they say, openly and proudly, that they’re not having any discussions, that nothing is being talked about, and they’re only dealing with ‘Oman.’”

Trump alluded to those claims in his post, saying Iran was offering “their usual blather in saying, the Strait of Hormuz will be operated powerfully by them, when it is already completely controlled by the United States Navy.”

He said the US blockade of Iranian ports would continue “unless a Deal, or Total Surrender, is accomplished.”

“Whether Iran wants to admit it or not, we are, in fact, talking of a solution to a problem that they have caused, for decades. It is very simple, IRAN WILL NEVER HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON!” he wrote.
