The US was waiting on Iran's response to its latest proposal to end the war after suggesting word could come imminently, following clashes in the Strait of Hormuz that strained a month-long ceasefire. Bloomberg News Deputy UAE Bureau Chief Abeer Abu Omar and White House Correspondent Jeff Mason join David Gura and Christina Ruffini on Bloomberg This Weekend to discuss.
Iran has still given no indication whether it will accept President Donald Trump's plan, sent on Wednesday, which proposes that the Islamic Republic reopen the waterway and the US end a blockade on Iranian ports over the next month.
Tehran's response is "under review," Foreign Ministry Spokesman Esmail Baghaei told the semi-official Tasnim news agency, without giving a timeline.
Trump told reporters at the White House late Friday he was still expecting a response "tonight." Asked if Iran was intentionally slow-rolling the process, he said "we'll find out soon enough."
