President Donald Trump spent Saturday at Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia, attending the LIV Golf tournament as his administration waited for Iran\u2019s response to the latest U.S. peace proposal.<\/p>\n
The president was joined by his son, Eric Trump, Larry Glick, executive vice president of development at The Trump Organization, and Yasir Al-Rumayyan, governor of Saudi Arabia\u2019s Public Investment Fund.<\/p>\n
The president\u2019s appearance came as tensions around Iran remained high.<\/p>\n
Iran\u2019s Revolutionary Guard navy warned Saturday that any attack on Iranian oil tankers or commercial vessels would be met with a \u201cheavy assault\u201d on one of the U.S. bases in the region and enemy ships, according to Iranian state TV.<\/p>\n
The warning came a day after the United States struck two Iranian oil tankers, raising new questions about the month-old ceasefire. The U.S. military said the tankers were trying to breach its blockade of Iran\u2019s ports.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Bahrain, which hosts the U.S. Navy\u2019s regional headquarters, said it arrested dozens of people it alleged had links to Iran\u2019s Revolutionary Guard.<\/p>\n
Washington is still awaiting Iran\u2019s response to its latest proposal for a deal to end the war, reopen the Strait of Hormuz to shipping and roll back Tehran\u2019s disputed nuclear program.<\/p>\n
Russian President Vladimir Putin said Moscow\u2019s proposal to take enriched uranium from Iran to help negotiate a settlement remains on the table.<\/p>\n
For now, the ceasefire appears to be holding, but the threat of escalation remains as the U.S. waits for Iran\u2019s formal response.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"President Donald Trump spent Saturday at Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia, attending the LIV Golf tournament…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":105894,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[84,34,36624,36623,36621,36514,6779,722,22045,36622,30693,5308,50,4738,18755,36625],"class_list":{"0":"post-106040","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-iran","8":"tag-attack","9":"tag-iran","10":"tag-iranian-oil-tanker","11":"tag-late-proposal","12":"tag-liv-golf-tournament","13":"tag-month-old-ceasefire","14":"tag-mpnd","15":"tag-president-trump","16":"tag-response","17":"tag-revolutionary-guard-navy","18":"tag-russian-president-vladimir-putin","19":"tag-saturday","20":"tag-saudi-arabia","21":"tag-ship","22":"tag-u-s-basis","23":"tag-yasir-al-rumayyan"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@iran\/116548101904572621","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/106040","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=106040"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/106040\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/105894"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=106040"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=106040"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=106040"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
