‘I’m the one that kept it closed’: Trump says he blocked Hormuz reopening; rejects rushing Iran deal

US President Donald Trump has struck a defiant tone on Iran, claiming that he is in no hurry to reach a deal. He rejected the use of nuclear weapons and said Washington has already inflicted major military damage on Tehran. Trump also stated that Iran's leadership is in turmoil and that the US has hit about 75% of its targets, with the campaign slowing down after signs from Iran that it wanted de-escalation.
