- US-Iran talks remain uncertain in status after a ship was struck in the Strait of Hormuz
- Trump called off planned Iran strikes while warning it was Iran's "last chance" to sign a deal, even as no new negotiations with Iran are reportedly planned
Why it matters: With a ship strike in the strategic Strait of Hormuz, called-off military action, and contradictory signals on whether new talks will happen, the diplomatic path remains unresolved and any reopening of the waterway may depend on the separate Iran-Oman arrangement reportedly nearing completion.
