US president says ‘we took over the cargo, took over the oil. It’s a very profitable business’

• Middle East crisis – live updates

Donald Trump has said the US navy acted “like pirates” as he described an operation seizing a ship amid the tit-for-tat American blockade of Iranian ports.

“We … land on top of it and we took over the ship. We took over the cargo, took over the oil. It’s a very profitable business,” said Trump at a rally in Florida on Friday.

Proposta do Irã rejeitada por Trump previa liberar Estreito de Ormuz e adiar debate nuclear

Para cumprir formalidade com o congresso, Trump diz que "hostilidades" com o Irã foram encerradas A proposta apresentada pelo Irã e rejeitada pelo presidente dos Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, previa reabrir o tráfego comercial no Estreito de Ormuz e encerrar o bloqueio naval à região. Segundo informou uma alta autoridade iraniana neste sábado (2), o plano sugeria o fim das hostilidades imediatas, deixando as discussões sobre o programa nuclear para uma etapa posterior. Em resumo, o plano estabelecia que: a guerra terminaria com garantias de que Israel e EUA não atacariam o país novamente; o Irã abriria o Estreito de Ormuz imediatamente; os Estados Unidos encerrariam o bloqueio aos portos iranianos; as discussões sobre restrições ao programa nuclear seriam realizadas em uma fase posterior, em troca do fim das sanções econômicas. O impasse diplomático ocorre quatro semanas após os Estados Unidos e Israel suspenderem uma campanha de bombardeios contra o Irã. Até o momento, não houve acordo para encerrar o conflito que já provocou a maior interrupção na história do fornecimento global de energia. Há mais de dois meses, o Irã bloqueia quase todo o transporte marítimo no Golfo Pérsico, permitindo apenas a circulação de suas próprias embarcações. Em represália, no mês passado, o governo americano impôs seu próprio bloqueio a navios que partem de portos iranianos. Na sexta-feira (1º), Trump declarou a jornalistas na Casa Branca que "não está satisfeito" com a última oferta de Teerã, embora não tenha detalhado quais pontos específicos rejeita. "Eles estão pedindo coisas que eu não posso aceitar", afirmou. Condição americana O presidente Donald Trump caminha para falar com repórteres enquanto se prepara para embarcar no helicóptero Marine One no gramado sul da Casa Branca, na sexta-feira, 1º de maio de 2026, em Washington Mark Schiefelbein / AP Washington mantém a postura de que não encerrará a guerra sem um acordo que garanta que o Irã nunca obterá uma arma nuclear — o principal motivo alegado por Trump ao lançar os ataques em fevereiro. O Irã, por sua vez, reitera que seu programa nuclear tem fins pacíficos. Sob condição de anonimato, uma autoridade iraniana afirmou à Reuters que o governo acredita que a proposta de "fatiar" o acordo — separando a crise marítima da questão nuclear — seria um passo significativo para facilitar o entendimento. "Neste modelo, as negociações sobre a questão nuclear, que é mais complexa, seriam movidas para a etapa final para criar uma atmosfera mais favorável", explicou o oficial. O novo cronograma teria sido enviado formalmente aos Estados Unidos através de mediadores internacionais.

Steve Hilton: could this British former Fox News host be California’s next governor?

The race to succeed Gavin Newsom has teetered wildly, and with Democrats in disarray, the Republican ex-Downing Street adviser is leading in the polls. Can he really pull it off?

Few political aspirations have proved more futile over the past two decades than running as a Republican for statewide office in California. Yet Steve Hilton – transplanted Brit, erstwhile business entrepreneur, a former Downing Street adviser to David Cameron and a former Fox News host who says he is friends with half of Donald Trump’s cabinet – is having a remarkably good time of it.

With less than six weeks to go before a primary election that has proved to be both dramatic and wildly unpredictable, most polls put Hilton narrowly ahead of a fractured field of Democrats in the race to succeed Gavin Newsom as governor. It is an astonishing turn of events in a state where Democrats enjoy supermajorities in the state legislature and a two-to-one advantage over the Republicans in voter registration.
