Iran keeps Hormuz closed as talks with US stall and blockade persists
TL;DR
Iran said the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed until the U.S. lifts its naval blockade on Iranian ports, arguing that talks with Washington still have gaps. Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said progress exists but a final deal remains distant, while President Trump claimed ongoing conversations and warned Iran against trying to “blackmail” the U.S. The Revolutionary Guards warned that vessels passing without permission will be targeted, and only a few ships crossed during a brief reopening as regional tensions persisted.
