## Resource

Former Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin warns that while the U.S. Navy could force open the Strait of Hormuz, doing so would come at a steep cost—and must be done with international partners. He sees ongoing strikes by Hezbollah as a major obstacle to peace talks and insists a ceasefire is essential before any negotiations can resume. With Iran and Israel reportedly agreeing to reduce hostilities, Austin hopes this de-escalation paves the way for broader diplomacy. He also warns that a conflict in the Taiwan Strait could have far greater global economic consequences than any disruption in Hormuz.
