President Donald Trump has threatened to target Iran’s energy infrastructure if Tehran fails to reach a peace agreement soon and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Trump said the United States is in discussions with what he described as a more reasonable Iranian regime and claimed significant progress had been made. He warned that Iranian power plants, oil wells, Kharg Island, and potentially desalination facilities could be attacked if negotiations fail. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said U.S. military operations could end within weeks as objectives are achieved. Meanwhile, U.S. officials say Iran has received a proposed 15-point peace plan, while tensions remain high over the strategically important Strait of Hormuz.
