White House cites ongoing talks with Iran amid recent escalation reasons
The article clarifies that the White House has confirmed ongoing discussions with Iran, and that Iran is interested in reaching an agreement and continues negotiations. However, it was emphasized that the recent escalation resulted from Iran's violation of the memorandum of understanding that prevented fire on commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz, which led to recent attacks. The White House also explained that the Strait of Hormuz remains open to non-Iranian ships, with the U.S. Navy present to ensure its continued openness. Meanwhile, Iran has threatened to escalate its threats against cities and facilities in the region if tensions persist.
