Donald Trump has claimed that Iran's failure to finalize a deal with the United States stems from its national pride, insisting that they have 'no choice' but to negotiate. During an interview with NBC News, Trump noted that the lengthy negotiations are a result of Iran's strong and proud nature, stating that they are being forced into actions they never anticipated. Despite a fragile ceasefire established in April, hostilities have continued, with the US military recently intercepting four Iranian drones that posed a risk to maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz. In response to these threats, the US conducted strikes on Iranian coastal radar sites. Iran retaliated by launching ballistic missiles at US military bases in Kuwait and targeting facilities in Bahrain. This ongoing conflict, which began with joint US-Israel strikes on Iranian sites, has significantly disrupted traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a vital route for global oil and gas, leading to rising energy prices.
