US President Donald Trump made clear his lack of concern regarding Iran's potential return to negotiations, asserting that the US has significantly weakened Iran's military capabilities. He stated, 'Their military is gone. Their missiles are largely depleted,' following high-level talks in Pakistan that ended without an agreement. Amid these tensions, the US Navy plans to implement a blockade on ships entering or leaving Iranian ports via the Strait of Hormuz, a vital channel for global oil shipments, which previously handled about 20% of the world's oil supply. This announcement led to a spike in oil prices, exceeding $100 per barrel, as fears of supply disruptions grew. Trump's remarks also criticized NATO for not adequately supporting the US, despite its substantial financial contributions, indicating a potential review of the alliance's costs. As the situation remains unstable, with ongoing Israeli military activity and geopolitical concerns surrounding Iran's nuclear program, the future of diplomatic negotiations appears uncertain.
