Iran war: Trump signals war can end despite Hormuz closure

from Dialogue

U.S. President Donald Trump has told aides he is willing to end the war on Iran even if the Strait of Hormuz remains closed. He has also warned that Iranian energy infrastructure, including desalination plants, could be targeted if a deal is not reached soon. Foreign ministers of Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Turkiye, and Egypt have met in Islamabad, pledging support for renewed peace efforts. What is Washington's next move? Is the U.S. preparing to exit, regardless of the consequences? Or is it keeping military options open, as more troops arrive in the region? And can diplomatic efforts from other countries help ease tensions?
