"Reopening the Strait of Hormuz is impossible with such flagrant breach of the ceasefire. A full ceasefire could only hold if Washington lifts its blockade of Iranian ports."
"Iran considers the blockade an act of war. Tehran accused the United States of acting in bad faith, stating that no delegation would go to Pakistan until the blockade is lifted."
"The impasse has effectively shut the crucial Strait of Hormuz, straining economies across the world. One doesn't know what to do amid the uncertainty of ceasefire or continued war."
