Mohsen Rezaei, a military adviser to Iran’s supreme leader, has said that the US President Donald Trump is “betraying diplomacy for the third time” by continuing “naval blockade and adopting increasingly excessive demands in negotiations”.

In a post on social media platform X, Rezaei said the US president has also “demonstrated that he is not genuinely interested in negotiations and is pursuing other objectives”.
