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.”
