The reason lies in the positions.<\/p>\n In particular, Iran insists on maintaining its control over the waterway and charging fees from ships passing through it.<\/p>\n Moreover, Iranian negotiators are rejecting ideas of “joint control,” despite a high-level meeting between US Vice President Jay D. Vance and Iran’s wartime leader Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf.<\/p>\n One source added that the negotiators are currently having a working dinner, after which technical discussions will take place later that same evening.<\/p>\n Ceasefire, negotiations, and “victory”<\/p>\n Recall that earlier this week, US President Donald Trump agreed to a two-week ceasefire with Iran in exchange for the opening of the Strait of Hormuz. He also stated that the countries intend to reach a final agreement during these couple of weeks.<\/p>\n Iran, for its part, opened the strait and soon closed it again. The reason for this move was the bombing of Lebanon by Israel. At the same time, media reports today indicated that another reason is that Iran cannot locate and defuse its own mines.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, Donald Trump announced that the US is beginning mine clearance in the strait, and media reports indicated that several US Navy ships entered the strait but then exited. The Pentagon has already confirmed that the US Navy passed through the Strait of Hormuz and conducted operations to ensure passage from sea mines.<\/p>\n At the same time, Trump accuses the media of publishing fake news when they claim that the US lost the war. According to him, American forces completely destroyed the Iranian army, including its navy and air force.<\/p>\n All this is happening against the backdrop of US-Iran negotiations in Pakistan, where Jay D. Vance arrived for meetings on behalf of the American side.<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.rbc.ua\/ukr\/news\/prodolzhat-li-vashington-tehran-peregovory-1681222955.html<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Will Washington and Tehran continue negotiations?
