- Pezeshkian told Al Jazeera that Iran no longer trusts talks with the US, citing that previous negotiations were followed by attacks and sanctions.
- Donald Trump rejected Iran's proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz within seven days, shortly after Pezeshkian's remarks aired.
Why it matters: Tehran publicly closing the door on US diplomacy the same day Trump rejected a specific seven-day Strait of Hormuz reopening proposal eliminates the near-term diplomatic channel and locks in confrontation over the waterway.
