With President Trump calling the ceasefire “over” but open to permanent talks, negotiators face a tight deadline — and U.S. officials hint at military options if diplomacy fails. Iran insists on exclusive control of the vital strait, rejecting foreign interference and challenging decades of global consensus on its status as a free passage for nearly 20% of the world’s oil and gas. Any nuclear deal hinges on Iran surrendering its enriched uranium — a condition U.S. officials won’t budge on unless Iran first stops attacks. Unclaimed airstrikes and regional blame-shifting — including Iran’s threat to hold the UAE accountable — add to the chaos. Mediators from Oman, UAE, Pakistan, and Qatar are stepping in as U.S. ships are urged to reroute through Omani waters, while Iran escalates attacks across the Middle East.
