US-Iran negotiations stall over nuclear program and Hormuz blockade FAST-MOVING
Negotiations between the United States and Iran regarding nuclear programs and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz have reached a stalemate. Qatari mediator Ali al-Tavadi met with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi in New York to discuss a two-page compromise proposal. The plan aims to address Iran's demand for the lifting of the US maritime blockade in exchange for concessions on its nuclear program.
While some US officials described the talks as positive, President Donald Trump later stated on Truth Social that he had offered Iran nothing. Meanwhile, Iran's chief negotiator, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, has threatened to attack regional energy infrastructure if Iran's security is not guaranteed, stating that no one else will be able to sell oil if Iran cannot.
The conflict, which began in February 2026 following US and Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear sites, has led to a blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, a route carrying one-fifth of the world's oil and gas. President Trump claimed the US has extracted more oil from the strait in recent days than at any other time in history, asserting that the situation for Tehran is worsening.
