US Vice President JD Vance says Washington is deploying diplomatic, military and economic measures to pressure Iran, describing the strategy as highly selective and strategic. He identified preventing Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon and restoring stability in the Strait of Hormuz as two central US objectives. Vance also stressed the uncertainty surrounding Tehran, arguing that Iran has previously failed to honor commitments. The comments come as tensions involving Iran, the US and the strategically vital Strait of Hormuz continue to carry major implications for regional security and global energy markets.
