Iran has issued a stark warning to the United States, refusing to leave the Strait of Hormuz amid an intensifying naval blockade. As Washington pushes sustained economic pressure, Tehran is signaling readiness for a prolonged standoff while rejecting US demands as unrealistic. Backchannel talks via Pakistan continue, but no date has been set for the next round. With nearly one-fifth of global oil supply at stake, the crisis threatens to spiral into a wider confrontation, raising fears of economic shocks and regional instability across the Middle East.#IranUS #StraitOfHormuz #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #MiddleEastCrisis #OilCrisis #USIranTensions #GlobalSecurity #Iran #USA
