The Strait of Hormuz is still the problem nobody has solved. Iran wants the US blockade lifted. Washington wants Iran to give up its nuclear leverage. And now there’s a reported $8 billion proposal involving frozen Iranian funds, with Qatar trying to broker an arrangement that would reopen the shipping route. Rubio is warning that Tehran wants to charge ships to pass through the strait. Trump says the war is effectively over, yet the blockade remains and US forces are ready to resume strikes. His description of the war is far ahead of the negotiations.
