Vice President J.D. Vance said Saturday that the United States remains in the middle of its confrontation with Iran, and that Tehran has signaled the flow of oil and gas through the Strait of Hormuz will return to pre-conflict levels. According to a report circulated via Israeli channels, Vance stated: 'We are still in the middle of the game. The Iranians told us that the amount of gas and oil that will come out of the Strait of Hormuz will be the same as before the conflict. That's what we expect.'
The remarks come amid ongoing diplomatic efforts between Washington and Tehran. The Zioneer has previously reported on Vance's statements regarding the Iran nuclear talks and the administration's posture. In June, Vance said the administration does not view direct negotiations as a concession, and that preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon may require force. He also noted earlier that many details of a potential US-Iran deal remain unresolved.
The Strait of Hormuz is a critical global energy artery, and any disruption would have significant economic consequences. Vance's comments suggest confidence that the current framework will maintain stability in the region. This report is based on a single source and remains developing.
