Iran’s ‘new nuclear weapon’: Weaponised geography in Strait of Hormuz
Former Middle East negotiator Aaron David Miller says the terms of the US peace talks with Iran are going to be “incredibly difficult” to negotiate. “I’m reminded of what the Taliban said, in reference to American efforts in Afghanistan. You have the clock; the Taliban said, we have the time,” Mr Miller told Sky News Australia. “We’re not going back to February 27 when 20 per cent of global oil supply flowed. It’s not going to be free and unfettered anymore. “That is the new Iranian nuclear weapon. They’ve weaponised geography, and they’ve done it with a terrifying clarity and impact.”

Trump says Iran ceasefire is 'over': 'They're scum. They're sick people'
President Donald Trump said he believes the 60-day ceasefire with Iran is over, after U.S. warplanes and missiles hit more than 80 targets following attacks from the regime on commercial vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz. Speaking at the NATO summit in Ankara, Turkey, Trump stopped short of ending negotiations with Iran, but said: I'll speak to our negotiators. They want to negotiate they're good people — Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner — but they have to come back to me, and as far as I'm concerned it's just a waste of time dealing with them.

'Hormuz will never return to pre-war state': Iran challenges Trump's 'total control' claim, draws red line
Even as the United States celebrates what it describes as a breakthrough in negotiations with Iran, emerging statements from Tehran suggest that the path to lasting peace may be far more complicated than Washington is projecting. US Vice President JD Vance hailed the latest round of US-Iran talks as having laid a good foundation for a successful final deal. But comments from Iran's chief negotiator, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, paint a starkly different picture particularly when it comes to the future of the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's most critical energy chokepoints.
