Vance Eyes Iran Deal
JD Vance believes that reaching a deal to end the war with Iran could strengthen his chances of winning the Republican presidential nomination in 2028. Tehran, meanwhile, is counting on his need for an agreement to secure concessions—chief among them an Iranian role in managing navigation through the Strait of Hormuz. Iran insists that its seven demands be met before it will discuss the nuclear issue, and rejects transferring any material enriched to 60% to a third country. Washington hopes the economic blockade will push Tehran to change its position. Proposals under discussion include easing the naval blockade and moving U.S. aircraft carriers away, in exchange for allowing 25 oil tankers a day to pass through the strait. But deep mistrust makes an agreement difficult to reach.
