At the narrow passage through which a third of the world's seaborne oil flows, Iran and the United States find themselves locked in a state that is neither war nor peace — a condition President Pezeshkian now openly calls unsustainable. Through Omani mediation, Tehran is signaling a willingness to negotiate the Strait of Hormuz's future, even as its most powerful military institution sets demanding terms. The talks represent a rare acknowledgment, on both sides, that perpetual brinkmanship carries costs no one can indefinitely absorb.
