Azatutyun. The President of the United States, Donald Trump, announced on Monday that Iran has been given a "last chance" to sign an agreement to end the five-month war, otherwise the country faces "decapitation."
"I think we will probably get something, but I want to give them every last chance before [their] decapitation," Trump said while responding to reporters' questions in the Oval Office, reaffirming the military threat directed at Iran.
Trump reiterated that negotiations with Iran are ongoing regarding the deal, although Tehran has denied that talks with Washington were planned.
"They are happening right now," Trump assured, claiming that the negotiations are taking place at the request of Iran, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and other countries.
"This is their last opportunity to make a deal."
Meanwhile, the spokesperson for Iran's Foreign Ministry, Ismail Baghaei, stated the day before that Iran is not currently negotiating with the United States and is now discussing the creation of a temporary secure passage through the Strait of Hormuz with Oman.
Conflicting information regarding the negotiations began to circulate on Sunday following President Trump's decision to cancel a planned new attack against Iran.
At the same time, the key Strait of Hormuz, crucial for global energy supplies, continues to remain largely impassable.
It has been reported that after the start of the war, a cargo ship was hit by an unknown mine in the waterway effectively closed by Tehran, near the coast of Oman. No further details are available at this time.
