On Saturday, US President Donald Trump highlighted the strength of American oil, asserting that numerous empty tankers are on their way to the United States to load what he called the 'best and sweetest' crude oil. His remarks came as crucial negotiations began in Islamabad, Pakistan, between US and Iranian delegations aimed at establishing a ceasefire in the ongoing conflict. Trump claimed that the US has more oil than the next two largest oil economies combined, reinforcing Washington's position as a key energy supplier amid disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, a vital global oil transit route. The talks, mediated by the government of Pakistani Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif, involved US Vice President JD Vance and other senior officials. However, Vance departed Islamabad without a resolution, leaving key issues unresolved, including the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and Iran's nuclear program. The discussions took place under tight security at the Serena Hotel, reflecting the high stakes involved.
