US President Donald Trump said on Saturday he had rejected an Iranian proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and bring about an end to hostilities. "I reject their proposal ... I rejected their deal," Trump told reporters at the White House in Washington, DC. Iran had proposed an initiative aimed at reopening the strategic waterway at the UN General Assembly in New York, which it said could put an end to fighting within seven days.

"They want to make a deal and I think that's fine, I like making a deal too," he continued.
