Donald Trump says Tehran asked the United States to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Visiting Russia, the head of Iranian diplomacy concluded that Washington had failed to achieve any of its objectives in the war against Iran.

Tehran’s latest proposal, which would exclude the issue of nuclear energy and focus on resolving the sea passage through Hormuz, would not have been well received in Washington.
The head of Iranian diplomacy, who met with Vladimir Putin in Moscow, has insisted on the idea that Iran does not want a nuclear bomb and that uranium enrichment has only energy objectives.
Two months after the first bombings by Israel and the United States on Iran, the impact of the conflict and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, through which a fifth of the world’s oil and gas passed before the war, is increasingly global.
This Tuesday is marked by the announcement of the United Arab Emirates’ withdrawal from the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries.
The decision, valid from May 1st, contributes to increasing economic uncertainty and underlining the urgency of a peace agreement.
