President Donald Trump on Friday said that the Iranian regime has very few negotiating options ahead of talks between Tehran and Washington in Pakistan over the weekend as a two-week ceasefire between the two parties continues to hold.
In a post on Truth Social, the president wrote Iran has “no cards” other than attempting to block commercial navigation through the Strait of Hormuz, which carries around one-fifth of the world’s oil on a normal day. The effective shutdown of the strait since Feb. 28 has sent oil, gas, and energy prices surging and has prompted fears about the global economy.
