U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance, after difficult negotiations in Pakistan, sent Tehran a final warning. Zamin.uz presents the details of these important statements affecting global economy and security.<\/p>\n<p>Negotiations in Pakistan: Why was no agreement reached?<\/p>\n<p>U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance held face-to-face talks with Iranian officials in Islamabad on April 11\u201312. However, the expected result was not achieved. According to Vance, the Iranian delegation did not have the authority to make final decisions and was forced to constantly return to Tehran for consultations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe ball is completely in their court. The further course of the process now depends on the Iranians themselves,\u201d the Vice President said in an interview with Fox News.<\/p>\n<p>The Strait of Hormuz \u2014 the main U.S. \u201cred line\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For Washington, the top priority remains the full opening of the Strait of Hormuz \u2014 a key artery of global oil trade \u2014 for shipping. Vance called Iran\u2019s attempts to charge fees from passing ships \u201ceconomic terrorism\u201d and threatened harsh measures:<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 if Iran continues pressure, the U.S. will fully blockade Iranian ports;<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 not a single Iranian vessel will be allowed to enter the open sea;<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 military and economic superiority is fully on Washington\u2019s side.<\/p>\n<p>Nuclear program and enriched uranium control<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. has put forward another key condition: strict control over Iran\u2019s enriched uranium reserves. Washington demands a reliable monitoring mechanism that would completely eliminate Iran\u2019s ability to develop nuclear weapons. This issue remains one of the most controversial points in the negotiations.<\/p>\n<p>Worrying forecasts in the oil market<\/p>\n<p>Amid political tensions, economic indicators are also unstable. According to U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright, until the situation in the Strait of Hormuz stabilizes, oil prices may continue to rise for several more weeks. This is putting serious pressure on global energy supplies.<\/p>\n<p>Now peace in the region or possible escalation depends directly on Tehran\u2019s response to Washington\u2019s proposals.<\/p>\n<p>Dear readers, do you think Iran will agree to these strict U.S. conditions? And how much damage could the situation in the Strait of Hormuz cause to the global economy?<\/p>\n<p>    <a class=\"social-link-block social-telegram\" href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/joinchat\/AAAAADwt0NGCRoONT4f1_Q\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"> Read \u201cZamin\u201d on Telegram! <\/a>    <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/foto_2_1741012701.webp\" width=\"50\" height=\"50\" style=\"object-fit: cover;\" title=\"Shuhrat Razzakov\" alt=\"Shuhrat Razzakov\"\/>        <\/p>\n<p>Found a mistake?<\/p>\n<p> Select the phrase and press Ctrl+Enter     <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Photo: cnn.com The situation on the political chessboard of the Middle East is taking on an extremely tense&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":66371,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[6977,24909,24910,147,7913,3804,102,34,4093,361,6476,650,5975,1372,10719,8097,1219,69,23496,1257,1705],"class_list":{"0":"post-66370","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-tehran","8":"tag-according","9":"tag-completely","10":"tag-depends","11":"tag-economy","12":"tag-final","13":"tag-global","14":"tag-hormuz","15":"tag-iran","16":"tag-irans","17":"tag-iranian","18":"tag-negotiations","19":"tag-pakistan","20":"tag-political","21":"tag-president","22":"tag-remains","23":"tag-situation","24":"tag-strait","25":"tag-tehran","26":"tag-these","27":"tag-vance","28":"tag-washington"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@iran\/116401833583711239","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66370","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=66370"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/66370\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/66371"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=66370"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=66370"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/iran\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=66370"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
