On the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, Iran has proposed reopening the Strait of Hormuz within seven days if the United States accepts its conditions. Mediated talks are continuing, while regional leaders assess the war’s broader costs.
Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said normal shipping through the Strait of Hormuz should resume under the memorandum of understanding signed by Tehran and Washington. He said Iran remains committed to the agreement and ready to implement its staged requirements.
UN official Jorge Moreira da Silva says fertilizer-supply disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz could leave at least 45 million people in developing countries facing food shortages. He says a humanitarian crisis could be avoided if five to seven fertilizer ships cross the strait daily, and urges Washington and Tehran to resolve the supply issue quickly.
The Wall Street Journal, citing unnamed U.S. officials, reported that President Donald Trump rejected Iran’s proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and halt regional fighting within seven days, and told aides he expects bombing to resume after November’s congressional elections.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said the timetable for Tehran’s proposed plan will begin when Washington accepts it.
