Trump has issued tough signals one after another, clearly instructing his aides to prepare for a long-term naval blockade on Iran as a core pressure method to force Iran to make concessions on the nuclear issue.
Trump posted a post on social media accusing Iran of being unwilling to sign a non-nuclear agreement, demanding that Iran make a wise decision as soon as possible, with a picture emphasizing that he is no longer a good guy, and reiterated that Iran must not possess nuclear weapons.
He also assessed that maintaining a blockade carries lower risks and is more suitable as a sustained pressure option than resuming military strikes or withdrawing from the conflict directly.
The US blockade mainly prevents ships from entering and exiting Iranian ports, focusing on hitting Iran's oil exports and economic lifeline.
At the same time, the U.S. Treasury Department has simultaneously increased sanctions, including relevant individuals and entities operating Iran's shadow banking system on the sanctions list, and prohibiting the United States and related parties from paying tolls through the Strait of Hormuz to Iran.
At the same time, it warned relevant parties that there is a risk of sanctions in oil transactions with Iran, forming a pattern of joint pressure on maritime blockades and financial sanctions.
The US's tough stance this time stems directly from its dissatisfaction with Iran's latest negotiation plan. Iran proposed a three-stage negotiation plan through Pakistan, advocating that it first end the war, then resolve the strait navigation issue, and finally discuss the nuclear program.
The United States insists that the nuclear issue must be a prerequisite for negotiations. The Trump team clearly rejects this step-by-step plan, and the deadlock in negotiations continues to solidify.
Faced with the U.S. threat of blockade, Iran responded forcefully.
On April 29, local time, a senior Iranian security official warned that he would respond to the United States' continued piracy with unprecedented military action. Relevant officials in the Iranian parliament also emphasized that they would not give up their sovereign rights to the Strait of Hormuz. The negotiations were not a retreat but a new stage of fighting.
A spokesman for the Iranian government stated that Iran has already formulated multiple response plans, is expanding land channels to cooperate with neighboring countries, and has the ability to withstand a long-term blockade.
Since the outbreak of military conflicts in the Middle East, it has had a significant impact on regional and global economic and trade.The United Nations disclosed that ship traffic in the Strait of Hormuz has dropped significantly by 95.3% since February 28.
In addition, it has also triggered a rise in global bulk food prices, a sharp rise in crude oil prices in the European market, and continued pressure on the energy and shipping markets.
