Trump vows immediate Strait of Hormuz blockade as Iran talks collapse

TL;DR Summary
Following the collapse of U.S.-Iran ceasefire talks in Pakistan, President Trump said the U.S. Navy would immediately blockade ships in international waters through the Strait of Hormuz to interdict vessels paying Iran’s tolls, a move that could roil global oil markets; Iran said the strait remains open for non-military traffic but would respond to military vessels, and the talks stalled over nuclear-related demands with no clear path forward before the ceasefire expires.
