Iran said on Monday it remained in control of the Strait of Hormuz and had not sought to resume peace talks with the United States after President Donald Trump halted a two-week bombing campaign against the country.
Following 13 consecutive nights of escalating strikes that prompted Tehran to retaliate by targeting U.S. military bases, Trump suspended the bombing campaign over the weekend. Iran said it would also pause its attacks as long as the U.S. refrained from further strikes.
