Mike Waltz, #Trump’s ambassador to the UN, acknowledged in an interview w me this week that the US could still be mired in this Iran stalemate — without a deal on Tehran’s nuclear programme or a resolution on the Strait of Hormuz—a year from now. “I’m not going to put out hypotheticals. One would hope that they’ll come to the table in a meaningful way before that,” he said But “the president and the US Navy can maintain this blockade [on Iranian ports] for the foreseeable future,” and the administration is “tightening” its economic pressure campaign.
