WASHINGTON/DUBAI, April 29 (Reuters) – Donald Trump discussed how to mitigate the impact of a possible months-long U.S. blockade of Iran‘s ports with U.S. oil companies, a White House official said on Wednesday, as the U.S. president urged Tehran to “get smart soon” and sign a deal.

Tuesday’s talks with oil executives followed deadlock in efforts to resolve the conflict, which has led the United States to try to squeeze Iran‘s oil exports with a naval blockade to try to force it to reopen the Strait of Hormuz to shipping.

Trump has said Iran can call if it wants to talk and, in a post on Truth Social on Wednesday before details of the meeting emerged, said Tehran “couldn’t get its act together”.

Trump and the oil executives “discussed the steps President Trump has taken to alleviate global oil markets and steps we could take to continue the current blockade for months if needed and minimize impact on American consumers,” the White House official said.

Oil prices rose more than 6% on Wednesday, with the Brent contract hitting a one-month high, on the prospect of a lengthy blockade.

The war has cost the U.S. $25 billion so far, a senior Pentagon official said on Wednesday, providing the first official estimate of the military’s price tag for the conflict.

Iran has pledged to continue disrupting traffic through the strait as long as it is threatened, which may mean more Middle East oil supply disruptions from the conflict, which has killed thousands and caused global economic upheaval.

Tehran warned on Wednesday of “unprecedented military action” against continued U.S. blockading of Iran-linked vessels. Trump has said Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, while Tehran says its nuclear ambitions are peaceful.

“They don’t know how to sign a nonnuclear deal. They’d better get smart soon!” Trump said in the social media post, without explaining what such a deal would entail.
MOSCOW, April 29 (Reuters) – Vladimir Putin and Do MOSCOW, April 29 (Reuters) – Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump held a phone call on Wednesday in which the Russian leader put forward ideas on resolving the conflict over Iran‘s nuclear program, a Kremlin aide said.

Putin also proposed a repeat of a temporary ceasefire in Ukraine to mark the anniversary of the end of World War Two next month, the aide said. Putin announced a similar truce last year which lasted three days but was not agreed with Kyiv.

The phone call was the first publicly announced conversation between the two leaders since March 9, nine days after the U.S. and Israel launched a war with Iran.

Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov did not say what proposals Putin had made on Iran. Moscow has previously offered to take enriched uranium out of the country.

Ushakov told reporters that Putin had proposed the temporary ceasefire in Ukraine for celebrations on May 9 to mark the Soviet Union’s part in the defeat of Nazi Germany in World War Two. He said Trump reacted positively.

Ushakov added that Trump, in a friendly and businesslike conversation lasting over one and a half hours, had said he believed a deal to end the Ukraine war was close.

WASHINGTON, April 29 (Reuters) – U.S. Defense Secr WASHINGTON, April 29 (Reuters) – U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth sought to defend the Iran war in fiery remarks to Congress on Wednesday, saying it was not a quagmire and attacking Democratic lawmakers as “feckless” for criticizing the unpopular conflict.

Hegseth was testifying before Congress for the first time ​since the U.S. and Israel launched a war against Iran on February 28 that has led to a surge in gasoline prices.

Trump’s popularity has taken a pounding since the conflict began and just 34% of Americans approve of the U.S. conflict with Iran, down from 36% in mid-April and 38% in mid-March, the Reuters/Ipsos poll ⁠found.

Democrats peppered Hegseth with questions about the open-ended conflict, with Rep. John Garamendi of California calling it a “quagmire” and “political and economic disaster at every level.”

Hegseth responded angrily.

“You call it a quagmire, handing propaganda to our enemies? Shame on you for that statement,” Hegseth said in response to Garamendi, and slammed “reckless, feckless, and defeatist” Congressional Democrats.

“Don’t say: ‘I support the troops on one hand, and then a two-month mission is a quagmire.’ … Who are you cheering for here? Who you pulling for?”

DUBAI, April 29 (Reuters) – Iran‘s currency droppe DUBAI, April 29 (Reuters) – Iran‘s currency dropped to a record low of 1,810,000 rials to the U.S. dollar on Wednesday, the Iranian Student News Agency (ISNA) said, as demand for foreign exchange that built up during six weeks of fighting with the U.S. and Israel is now flowing into the open market.

The rial has seen its value fall by nearly 15% in the last two days according to ISNA, after experiencing weeks of stability as demand for other currencies was inhibited due to war conditions and Iranian New Year holidays.

A ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran has been in place since April 8, with Washington reverting to a policy of economic pressure by imposing a blockade on shipping to and from Iranian ports in the [Persian] Gulf, making it harder for Iran to gain hard currency via exports.

April 29 - President Donald Trump said on Tuesday Britain’s King Charles did not ​want Iran to have a nuclear weapon, introducing the fraught subject of ‌the Middle East conflict into comments at a White House state dinner for the visiting royal.

The event was held on the second day of a four-day visit ​to the United States at a tense time in ties, after ​Trump has repeatedly criticized British Prime Minister Keir Starmer for ⁠what Trump calls lack of help in prosecuting the Iran war.

“We’re doing ​a little Middle East work right now and we’re doing very well,” ​Trump said at the dinner.

“We have militarily defeated that particular opponent, and we’re never going to let that opponent ever – Charles agrees with me even more than I do – ​we’re never going to let that opponent have a nuclear weapon.”

In ​his own comments following Trump, Charles did not speak about Iran or the war. The ‌king ⁠is not a spokesman for the British government.

Asked by reporters for clarification about the state dinner remarks, a Buckingham Palace spokesperson said, “The King is naturally mindful of his government’s long-standing and well-known position on the prevention of nuclear proliferation.”

A source familiar with the matter said some attendees “noticed the foreign secretary nodding when the president made his remarks on this point.”

In a speech to Congress ​earlier, Charles made no ​direct mention ⁠of the Iran war, but referred to Trump’s criticism of NATO, highlighted the importance of continued U.S. help for ​Ukraine in its war with Russia, and the dangers ​of isolationism.

Both ⁠Britain and the United States have maintained over the years that Tehran should not develop nuclear weapons.

Tehran, which does not have nuclear weapons, denies seeking ⁠them ​but says it has the right to develop ​nuclear technology for peaceful purposes, including enrichment, as a party to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
