Trump Says No to Iran's Plan to Reopen Oil Passage

U.S. President Donald Trump on September 26, 2026, rejected Iran's seven-day plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a narrow waterway that works like a hallway for oil ships. Speaking outside the White House before leaving for Tennessee, he said, 'I reject their proposal.' Iran had sent the plan through Qatar on September 25 and awaited a U.S. reply.
