President Trump ordered a US naval blockade of the Strait of Hormuz on April 12, 2026, targeting Iranian ports after mediated peace talks in Pakistan collapsed, escalating pressure on Tehran's oil exports amid a fragile ceasefire in the ongoing US-Iran conflict. Over the past week, Trump rejected Iran's latest proposal to reopen the strait, deeming it insufficient, while affirming the blockade's effectiveness in crippling Iran's economy as oil prices surged above $126 per barrel. Pentagon reports indicate $25 billion in war costs so far, with fighting paused but naval enforcement continuing. Traders weigh sustained diplomatic stalemate against potential truce negotiations, with no lifting announcement imminent despite Tehran's signals of willingness to deal.
