Is the Strait of Hormuz open now?

Last night, President Donald Trump proposed a two-week truce with Iran, just hours after threatening that “a whole civilisation will die tonight” and 90 minutes before a deadline for Tehran to strike an agreement concerning the job Strait of Hormuz open with the US.

Based on conversations with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir, who requested that “I hold off on sending destructive force to Iran tonight, and subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran agreeing to the COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz, I agree to suspend the bombing and attack on Iran for two weeks’, he wrote on Truth Social.

The ceasefire, Trump stated, is reliant on Iran reopening the channel. Iran submitted a 10-point plan to end the war, including “controlled passage” through the strait coordinated by its armed forces.

Trump termed the arrangement “workable,” and the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said it supports the truce if Iran “immediately” opens the straits and stops attacking other nations.

Iran’s Supreme National Security Council announced in a statement that negotiations with the US will begin on Friday in Islamabad, Pakistan, for two weeks.

Following the revelation, the price of US crude oil fell more than 16% to below $94 per barrel, a startling decline after reaching a high of $117 earlier in the day.

Trump’s warning to Iran was his most aggressive public language in the fight to date, eliciting reactions from across the political spectrum.

Several MAGA figures, like Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, and Mike Cernovich, are confronting Trump. Alex Jones, a controversial radio presenter, and former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene have claimed they want Trump’s Cabinet to use the 25th Amendment to remove him from the presidency.

By Tuesday night, more than 70 Democratic lawmakers had called for Trump’s impeachment.
