Amid the negotiations - Trump sends a sharp warning to China: "They will be in big trouble if they send weapons to Iran"

Two senior Iranians to the New York Times: Parliament Speaker Mohammad-Baqer Qalibaf and US Vice President J.D. Vance shook hands in a calm and warm atmosphere

US Vice President JD Vance confirmed that the round of talks with Iran yielded no results. "We held talks with Iran for 21 hours," Vance said. "We were quite flexible, but Iran chose not to accept our terms. This was our final and best offer. We need to get confirmation that Iran will not acquire nuclear weapons. Returning to the US without a deal"

The Fars news agency quotes a source close to the negotiation team: Iran has no plans for the next round of talks. The American team was looking for an excuse to leave, they were not willing to lower their expectations.

Pakistani sources told the Qatari Al-Araby Al-Jadeed newspaper: Several key issues delayed progress in the negotiations between the US and Iran, primarily the issues of Lebanon and the Strait of Hormuz. One of them said that the US "refuses to include Lebanon in any potential deal with Iran, and that the American delegation, especially Whitkopf and Kushner, wanted to transfer the entire Lebanon issue to Israel"

The Best Revenge

We should have done it long ago: If no ship passes then no ship will enter Iran.

The Jewish commentator of the New York Times, Thomas Friedman: I find myself torn, on one hand I want to see Iran militarily defeated, and on the other hand I really do not want to see Netanyahu or Trump strengthen politically through this war, because they are two terrible people.

This is the problem of most democrats and far right

Turkish President Erdogan at yesterday's conference:

Just as we entered Karabakh and Libya, we can also enter Israel - we need to be strong enough to take this step

Trump announces: Our navy will now block any ship trying to enter or exit the Strait of Hormuz

Trump:

• Iran did not agree to any compromise on the nuclear issue, all that was agreed upon does not change whether more such people hold nuclear power

- Additional countries will be involved in the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz

- We will also start destroying the mines that the Iranians placed in the strait

Trump: "Within half a day I can send Iran back to the Stone Age"

Trump: My statement about imposing a 50% tariff on countries supplying weapons to Iran also includes China

Israeli Ambassador to the UN Danny Danon in an interview with Fox News: "We want to see a stronger Lebanon. We and they have a common enemy - Hezbollah"

Trump: We are imposing a blockade on the Strait of Hormuz, similar to what we did to Venezuela but even more. We will not allow Iran to decide who passes through the strait, it's either everyone or no one.

Food for thought.

The mission was never negotiation. It was documentation. In the language of Sun Tzu, when peace is impossible, you must first appear to seek it, so that when force follows, it is seen not as aggression but inevitability.

Sending JD Vance, a man whose reputation is peace, into a hopeless stalemate was not naïveté, but design. The U.S. didn’t go to talk. It went to witness. And when Tehran overturned the table with the camera rolling, the trap was complete: legitimacy secured, perception shaped, and the next move pre‑justified.

Have a nice day.
