Donald Trump considers reviving Project Freedom as diplomatic talks with Iran stall

U.S. President Donald Trump announced he is considering reviving 'Project Freedom' to ensure the safe passage of ships through the Strait of Hormuz. This potential military operation would expand upon previous plans to escort commercial vessels. The announcement follows a collapse in diplomatic efforts to reach a peace agreement with Tehran. Iran formally rejected a U.S. proposal, describing it as an attempt to force the country's surrender. In response, Tehran submitted a list of demands, including the lifting of sanctions, the release of frozen assets, the end of the U.S. naval blockade, and guarantees against future attacks. Additionally, Iran requested the payment of war reparations and the right to maintain sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz. Trump dismissed the Iranian counter-proposal as 'completely unacceptable,' citing 47 years of regional instability. Meanwhile, the U.S. president continues to discuss the situation with allies like Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
