Trump Under Fire After Confounding Comments on Rejecting Peace Deal
In a controversial turn of events, President Donald Trump faced intense backlash on social media following his remarks about Iran's ceasefire proposal. During a briefing with reporters, the president defended his decision to reject Tehran's latest offer, asserting that accepting it would undermine U.S. control over a crucial waterway. Trump made the comments while departing the White House on Saturday, stating that the deal in question would have led to the immediate reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a vital shipping lane for global oil trade.
