Political analyst Tarek Al-Shami said Iran’s offer to reopen the Strait of Hormuz in exchange for lifting the US blockade on its ports does not meet the United States’ primary demand, which is related to the nuclear issue.

Speaking in an interview with Al Arabiya FM, he added that Iran aims to shift the main issue to the Strait of Hormuz, a strategy it has pursued since the start of the conflict.

Al-Shami noted that diplomatic efforts will remain stalled unless the US achieves its objective, making the prospect of US or Israeli attacks more likely.
