US EditionIran and the US Lean Into Gunboat Diplomacy as Nuclear Talks Hang in Balance
- On Thursday, Iranian military and government held naval drills with Russian sailors in the Gulf of Oman and Indian Ocean while the USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carrier repositioned closer to the Mediterranean, highlighting gunboat diplomacy amid stalled nuclear talks.
- Oman-Mediated talks and Geneva rounds have marked the fragile diplomacy, with two rounds so far failing to reach a deal after the June war disrupted negotiations, and Trump having begun re-engagement last year by writing to Iran's Supreme Leader.
- Iran earlier this week launched a live-fire drill in the Strait of Hormuz, issued rocket-fire warnings to pilots, and IRNA reported a Steregushchiy-class Russian corvette at Bandar Abbas to upgrade coordination.
- Mideast nations fear a collapse in diplomacy could spark a new regional war, and movements of U.S. military assets do not guarantee a strike though Trump retains the option to act.
- The International Atomic Energy Agency has been unable to inspect Iran's nuclear stockpile for months as Iran enriches uranium to 60%, while domestic protests and mourning rituals continue 40 days after killings.
