Hormuz talks favor Iran, complicating Trump
The article discusses the "last-chance" negotiations between the United States and Iran regarding the regulation of ship transit through the Strait of Hormuz. Washington is seeking to reach an agreement that would open the strait and reduce tensions, while Tehran, based on its interests, demands the lifting of the siege and guarantees against any aggression. The negotiations indicate that the proposed deal focuses on transit fees paid in exchange for environmental and security services, with Iran and Oman sharing in the revenues. The Trump administration is keen on a settlement that ensures the strait is opened swiftly, but Iran aims to utilize these agreements to strengthen its position and lift sanctions. This is happening amid American reluctance to negotiate the nuclear issue, ongoing escalation on the ground by Iran, and Tehran’s inclination to redirect the trajectory of regional tensions.
