The US and Iran clashed again today over the Strait of Hormuz issue. According to a general station reporter's observation, what is behind this is a fundamental difference between the two sides over the rules of the Strait of Hormuz: the United States wants to push ships to use international routes close to the Oman side, guarantee passage through military force, and weaken Iran's control over the strait. Iran, on the other hand, does not accept any “parallel waterways” that bypass Iran. In Iran's view, the US used the so-called “ship navigation incident” as an excuse to carry out an attack, in violation of the understanding arrangements previously reached between the two sides. Although the two sides still reserve diplomatic space, mutual trust has been seriously damaged. Iran is currently not showing any urgency to resume negotiations. This actually reflects Iran's judgment. Although the US has strong military strike capabilities, Trump will also face costs if he maintains military action against Iran for a long time, including pressure from regional allies, energy market risks, and domestic and international political pressure. Iran believes that it is more resilient and believes that time will stand on Iran's side.
