BlockBeats, citing CCTV News, reported on Aug. 16 that Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Baghaei said on Aug. 15 that the current situation in the Strait of Hormuz is the direct result of what he called the "illegal actions" of the United States and Israel. In recent days, Washington and Tehran have engaged in a sharp war of words over the waterway, with both sides making repeated statements and showing no sign of backing down.
Analysts quoted in the report said the standoff is continuing and that the gap between the two sides is hard to bridge in the near term. They said the situation could fall into a repeated cycle, making full passage through the Strait of Hormuz difficult to restore anytime soon. The same analysis held that neither side is likely to make major concessions in the short run. Unless the United States launches a new round of large-scale military strikes against Iran, the current deadlock in the ongoing contest is unlikely to change in any meaningful way. The report added that Trump’s idea of "defeating Iran" and "turning the Strait of Hormuz into US territory" would remain empty talk.

In recent days, the United States and Iran have exchanged sharp remarks over the Strait of Hormuz issue. The two sides have repeatedly stated their positions and neither has shown any willingness to give ground.
Analysts cited in the report said the two sides remain locked in confrontation, with differences that are difficult to bridge. They said the situation could enter a repeating cycle, and full navigation through the Strait of Hormuz may be hard to achieve in the short term.
The analysts also said the US and Iran are still in a sustained standoff over the issue, and the chances of either side making major concessions soon are small. Unless Washington decides to launch a new round of large-scale military strikes on Iran, the deadlock in the continuing contest is unlikely to see a significant change. In that case, Trump’s stated idea of "defeating Iran" and "bringing the Strait of Hormuz under US territory" would remain empty talk.
