🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran just handed Trump a wishlist it knows he'll never sign.
Iran's top security council says the Strait of Hormuz stays shut until the U.S. "corrects its behavior."
The demands, carried by Iranian state media:
—Lift the naval blockade
—Drop all sanctions
—Pull U.S. forces out of the region
—Release frozen assets
—Stop hitting Iran's allies
—Pay war reparations
None of it lands with Trump, and Tehran knows it. This reads more like a message to hardliners at home than a real offer.
Iran and Oman are reportedly "very close" on a route through the strait, but Araghchi says the deal reopens nothing until the U.S. meets Iran's terms first.
Meanwhile the waterway's basically frozen. About a dozen ships a day are crossing, down from 130 before the war.
That squeezes global oil, and with U.S. gas near $4 a gallon before the midterms, the pressure lands on Trump.
