Iran refuses to back down, insisting control of the strait and rejecting U.S. pressure to allow ships to pass — while also accusing Washington of breaking the interim oil deal. As talks with Qatar and Oman stall, the U.S. pushes for a nuclear deal requiring Iran to hand over enriched uranium, warning that failure could mean force to secure the material.
