U.S. President Donald Trump has firmly rejected Iran's proposal of "lifting sanctions before negotiations," announcing that the U.S. military will continue its naval blockade of Iran until a nuclear deal is reached. Trump emphasized that the blockade is a "key leverage" to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons and is more effective than direct bombing.

As Iran attempts to ease domestic pressure by modifying the peace agreement, the U.S. government has provided the most direct and firm response — refusing to compromise. According to the latest report from the renowned financial news account Walter Bloomberg (@DeItaone), citing Axios, U.S. President Donald Trump has made it clear that the U.S. will continue to implement a strict naval blockade on Iran without backing down. 🚨 TRUMP HOLDS IRAN BLOCKADE, REJECTS DEAL-FIRST PROPOSAL Trump told Axios the U.S. will maintain a naval blockade on Iran until a nuclear deal is reached, rejecting Tehran’s plan to ease restrictions before talks.

He held firm to the U.S. absolute bottom line: "Iran must never obtain nuclear weapons." Trump pointed out that the current naval blockade enforced by the U.S. military will continue to serve as "key leverage" for the U.S. at the negotiating table. He stated bluntly that from a strategic deterrence perspective, "the effectiveness of a blockade is far better than direct bombing," aiming to force Iran back to the nuclear negotiation table under the pressure of economic collapse. Limited military strikes prepared, risk of Middle East conflict surges Although the U.S. currently prefers to exert pressure through economic sanctions and naval blockades, the situation in the Middle East could spiral out of control at any moment. The report revealed two key details that have exacerbated market panic: - U.S. military prepares military options: Sources revealed that the U.S. Department of Defense has prepared tactical options for "limited military strikes." If diplomatic channels ultimately fail, the U.S. military will not hesitate to execute strike plans (though no actual action has been taken yet). - Iran threatens military retaliation: Faced with the U.S.'s firm refusal to concede, Iran has issued a stern warning, emphasizing that if the U.S. blockade continues, Iran will inevitably take substantive retaliatory actions. This series of hardline statements and military threats has pushed both the U.S. and Iran into a dangerous game of brinkmanship. With the probability of an accidental clash rising significantly, global macroeconomic markets, international crude oil prices, and risk and safe-haven assets, including Bitcoin, are likely to face a new round of severe volatility due to this rapidly escalating conflict risk.
