Trump says Xi agrees Iran must open strait, China says war shouldn’t have started

U.S. President Donald Trump says Chinese President Xi Jinping has agreed that Iran must reopen the Strait of Hormuz, but there is still no clear sign that Beijing will directly pressure Tehran to do so. Trump spoke while flying back from Beijing after two days of talks with Xi, where the crisis over Iran and global oil supplies dominated discussions. Iran has effectively shut the vital waterway, which previously carried about one‑fifth of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas, following joint U.S. and Israeli attacks on February 28. The disruption has triggered the biggest oil supply shock in history and sent energy prices soaring, piling pressure on economies already struggling with slow growth. Trump said both leaders shared the goal of preventing Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon and of restoring safe passage through the strait. He also revealed […]

India Faces Pressure From Iran War

As the conflict involving Iran enters its third month with no clear resolution in sight, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has urged citizens to reduce spending and conserve resources amid growing economic pressure linked to rising global energy costs. Speaking during a public event in Hyderabad, Modi encouraged Indians to work from home when possible, limit unnecessary foreign travel, reduce fuel consumption and avoid excessive purchases of gold. The appeal has drawn comparisons to the Covid-19 period, when the government relied on nationwide public participation to manage economic and social challenges. This time, the government’s focus is on protecting India’s foreign exchange reserves and limiting pressure on the national economy as the war in the Middle East disrupts global energy markets. India remains heavily dependent on imported energy, purchasing nearly 90% of its crude oil and about half of its […]

Xi Gives Trump Grand Welcome in Beijing

Chinese President Xi Jinping gave US President Donald Trump a highly ceremonial welcome in Beijing on the opening day of a visit that could reshape relations between the world’s two largest powers. The reception outside the Great Hall of the People featured a military honour guard, a gun salute and performances of the American national anthem. Schoolchildren waving Chinese and US flags lined the route as Trump greeted them during the ceremony. During their meeting, Trump warmly praised Xi, describing him as a “great leader” while highlighting the importance of continued dialogue between both countries. The atmosphere marked a sharp contrast from the harsh rhetoric Trump previously used against China during his political campaigns and trade disputes with Beijing. Over recent years, tensions between Washington and Beijing intensified over tariffs, trade imbalances, Taiwan and geopolitical influence. At the peak of […]

Iran Seizes Vessel in Gulf of Oman

Iranian forces have reportedly seized a vessel operating as a “floating armoury” in the Gulf of Oman, according to maritime security company Vanguard. The ship is said to be heading toward Iranian territorial waters following the incident. The UK Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) also confirmed that the vessel was moving toward Iranian waters after being intercepted. BBC Verify reviewed tracking information from MarineTraffic, which showed the vessel — identified as the Honduras-flagged Hui Chuan — last transmitted its position about 70km northeast of Fujairah in the United Arab Emirates on Wednesday. According to Vanguard, the operators of the Hui Chuan stated that the ship was functioning as a floating armoury. Such vessels are commonly used by private maritime security companies to store weapons and ammunition for guards protecting commercial ships from piracy attacks. The exact cargo onboard the vessel and […]

UAE Denies Netanyahu’s Secret Visit Claim

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has claimed he made a secret visit to the United Arab Emirates during the recent conflict involving Iran, saying he met UAE President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed in what his office described as a “historic breakthrough”. According to Netanyahu’s office, the meeting focused on strengthening cooperation between Israel and the UAE amid growing regional tensions linked to the war with Iran. Reports suggested the talks took place in the Emirati city of Al-Ain, near the border with Oman. However, the UAE quickly rejected the claims. In an official statement, the Emirati foreign ministry described reports of Netanyahu’s visit as “completely false” and stressed that relations with Israel are conducted openly through the framework of the Abraham Accords, not through secret arrangements. The UAE also reaffirmed its commitment to transparent diplomacy, insisting that no unofficial Israeli […]

Trump heads to China, says no need for Xi’s help on Iran war

US President Donald Trump has travelled to China for a crucial summit with President Xi Jinping, declaring that he does not expect to need Beijing’s help to end the ongoing war with Iran. Speaking to reporters before departing Washington, Trump downplayed China’s potential role in resolving the conflict, which has severely disrupted shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. “I don’t think we need any help with Iran. We’ll win it one way or the other, peacefully or otherwise,” he said, in comments that underscored his determination to project confidence despite mounting costs and diplomatic pressure. The war has seen both the US and Iran impede maritime traffic in a waterway that normally carries around one-fifth of the world’s oil supply. Trump’s remarks contrast with expectations from some analysts and allies, who had hoped China might use its economic ties with […]

Trump rejects Iran’s response to US peace plan as ‘totally unacceptable’

US President Donald Trump has rejected Iran’s response to a recent American peace proposal aimed at ending the ongoing Gulf conflict, describing Tehran’s counter offer as “TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.” His reaction, posted on social media just hours after Iran’s reply was delivered via Pakistani mediators, has cast fresh doubt on attempts to halt months of fighting that have disrupted global oil supplies. According to Iranian state media and semi official outlets, Tehran’s response focused on securing a comprehensive ceasefire on all fronts, including Lebanon, where US ally Israel is battling Iran backed Hezbollah militants. The proposal reportedly demanded an end to the US naval blockade in the Gulf, guarantees against further attacks, compensation for war damages and the lifting of sanctions and restrictions on Iranian oil exports. While full details of Washington’s original peace plan have not been made public, US […]

Iran accuses US of sabotaging diplomacy

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has strongly criticized the United States, accusing Washington of choosing military escalation whenever diplomatic progress appears possible. In a message posted on X, Araghchi said the US repeatedly turns to what he described as a “reckless military adventure” each time negotiations move closer to a potential solution. He also insisted that Iran would “never bow to pressure”. The statement comes amid rising tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, where Iran and the United States have exchanged accusations over recent military confrontations. Despite the clashes, Donald Trump maintained that a ceasefire between both sides remains in effect. The truce is intended to support negotiations aimed at ending the conflict launched earlier this year involving the United States, Israel and Iran. According to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Tehran is expected to respond to American peace […]

New Clash Tests US-Iran Ceasefire

Tensions between the United States and Iran have sharply escalated again despite ongoing claims from both sides that a ceasefire agreement remains in place. The latest confrontation occurred in the Strait of Hormuz, a strategic maritime route vital to global oil transport, where both countries accused each other of initiating military attacks. US President Donald Trump stated that the ceasefire with Iran was still active, even after clashes involving American naval destroyers and Iranian forces. According to Washington, Iranian forces launched missiles, drones and small attack boats against three US warships navigating through the strait. American officials described the operation as an “unprovoked attack”. Trump reacted strongly to the incident, saying Iran had “trifled” with the United States and warning that Washington was prepared to respond with greater force if Tehran failed to quickly finalize a peace agreement currently under […]

US awaits Iran’s response to latest peace deal offer

The United States is awaiting Iran’s response to its latest peace deal offer aimed at ending the ongoing conflict and easing tensions around the Strait of Hormuz. The proposal, drawn up with the help of regional mediators, is part of renewed diplomatic efforts to halt hostilities and restore vital Gulf shipping lanes. According to US and regional sources, Washington has presented Tehran with a concise framework that builds on an earlier 15 point plan shared with allies. The offer focuses on securing a ceasefire, reopening blocked shipping routes and setting parameters for future talks, while leaving the most sensitive nuclear issues to a later stage. Iranian officials say they have received the latest US response through Pakistan and are currently studying it. Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei confirmed that Tehran’s counter response will also be transmitted via Pakistani mediators once […]
