It’s not just Hormuz. There’s a second strait in the Middle East vital to global energy markets that Iran is threatening to close if President Donald Trump fails to wind down the Iran war.
The world is already experiencing the worst disruption to global energy markets in history following U.S. and Israeli attacks on Iran. But if Iranian proxies close the Bab el-Mandeb strait — a busy Red Sea choke point — it would compound global financial woes and likely push oil prices to $150 a barrel, experts said.


This is bad, awful, terrible “writing”.
What kind of sick twisted fuckwit would write this?
Pretty much everything I’ve read so far seems to be trump talking out his ass about promising negotiations and the Iranians saying nope, we’re not talking.
Then trump launches more missiles.
It tend to beleive the Iranians.
Why would the Iranians attempt any negotiation? They never honoured any of the previous deals. The Americans have zero credibility and have shown themselves to always negotiate in bad faith. It’s pointless to even bother.
If you read it as “the Trump regime” then it makes more sense
