Donald Trump is making his way to China where he will hold landmark talks with President Xi Jinping, including on how to bring an end to the war in Iran and reopen the Strait of Hormuz.
US Intelligence Warnings
Earlier, Trump accused the U.S. media of “virtual TREASON” for reporting on American intelligence indicating that Iran retains substantial missile capabilities. The New York Times reports that Iran has restored operational access to 30 of its 33 missile sites along the Strait.
UK Involvement
The UK has announced it will send drones, jets and a warship to aid a multinational defensive mission to secure shipping through the waterway.
Iran's Threats
Iran has also threatened to start enriching weapons-grade uranium if Trump reopens the conflict, with the ceasefire agreement on “life support” after the US president dismissed Tehran’s latest peace proposal.
