U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance stated Saturday that there is no evidence Iran has closed the strategic Strait of Hormuz. This declaration follows a prior announcement by the Iranian army of its intention to close the strait in response to
ongoing Israeli attacks on Lebanon. In an interview with a news network, Vance indicated that the United States would allow an opportunity for negotiations with Tehran, anticipating talks to be held soon. He mentioned that "Witkoff and Kushner" are involved in
these discussions, which he described as progressing well, with an expected move to Switzerland. Vance affirmed Washington's confidence in maintaining the ceasefire, reiterating his country's commitment to providing opportunities for dialogue with Iran.
