US President Donald Trump has rejected an offer from Iran for a seven-day ceasefire and told aides he expects to launch new attacks after the midterm elections in November, the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported on Friday.

The newspaper, citing officials familiar with the matter, said Iranian negotiators had presented the offer through intermediaries in Qatar, proposing the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and the resumption of nuclear talks if Washington would end its naval blockade of Iranian ports.

US officials have told Tehran and mediators that there is no plan to lift the blockade, assessing that continued economic pressure will eventually force Iran to reach a deal on Washington's terms, the newspaper reported.

According to her, during the seven-month war, Trump has moved from diplomatic efforts to military action and pressure through sanctions, while within the administration he has expressed doubts that Tehran will agree to dismantle its nuclear program, despite public statements that Iran is ready to reach an agreement after the elections.

The newspaper added that Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has rejected the new conditions for a deal, demanding the return of some elements of the previous June agreement and saying it is ready for a prolonged conflict.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says his country has proposed a deal to the US that would see the Strait of Hormuz reopened within a week.

Araghchi told reporters at the UN in New York that this could be done "if the necessary conditions are met" and said these were included in the memorandum of understanding (MOU) signed in June.

"The choice now lies with the United States," he said, adding that the plan was delivered to the US through Qatar.

Asked about the Iranian offer, a US official told the BBC that positive discussions were taking place through intermediaries, including on nuclear issues.

While the US has yet to give its official response to the proposal, the Wall Street Journal, citing US officials, reported that US President Donald Trump had rejected the deal.

Trump was privately skeptical that Iran would comply with his demands, she reported, and had told his staff that he saw a new bombing campaign as possible.

The US and Israel launched air strikes on Iran on February 28. Iran responded by attacking Israel and US bases in the Persian Gulf and US Arab allies in the Persian Gulf, as well as by blocking the Strait of Hormuz.

About 20% of the world's oil and liquefied natural gas passed through the strait before the war, and its closure has caused major fluctuations in energy prices.

It has also increased pressure on Trump to find a way to end the conflict – especially as the US heads towards congressional elections in November.

"If the necessary conditions are met, the strait can be reopened, a normal sea passage can be restored within seven days," Araghchi told reporters.

He did not specify what steps Iran wanted the US to take, but added that "the actions the United States should take are not new. They are all already in the Memorandum of Understanding."

"I can tell you if there is seriousness on the American side to reach an agreement and reopen the Strait of Hormuz, everything is prepared now," he added.

A US official told the BBC that the US was "in a very strong position with control of the Strait of Hormuz, so we are in no rush".

In an interview with CBS News, Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said the ceasefire process "will start from the day they accept it."

"We had previously reached an agreement based on the Memorandum of Understanding that was signed in Pakistan... if the United States agrees to continue in that manner, everything will return to the way it was before," he added.

Pezeshkian also said that Iran would now allow UN nuclear inspectors to enter the country.
