Donald Trump on Thursday said that Iran is allowing “ten boats of oil” to pass through the Strait of Hormuz as a goodwill gesture in ongoing backchannel talks, adding that the vessels appear to be operating under Pakistan flags. The revelation from the US president comes just after Tehran, through multiple sources, rejected the US proposal on reaching ceasefire in the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, calling it “one-sided” and protecting Israeli interestes and presenting its won demands.
