Iran denies Trump's claim it requested ceasefire | BBC News

Описание: Iran's foreign ministry says Donald Trump's claim that the country has asked for a ceasefire is "false and baseless", Iranian state media reports.

It follows a post on social media by the US president which said Iran's "new regime president" had made the request.

President Trump said the US would consider a ceasefire "when Hormuz Strait is open, free, and clear. Until then, we are blasting Iran into oblivion or, as they say, back to the Stone Ages!!!"

Trump also said he's considering leaving Nato - but an act passed in 2023 means that would not be straightforward.

Meanwhile in London, UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer said the UK will host a meeting with dozens of countries this week on the Strait of Hormuz.
