· quim aranda
Source Summary
The halt of cross-attacks between the United States and Iran this week has left the ceasefire signed on June 15 not dead, but rather on life support. At the heart of the ceasefire is, once again, the strategic Strait of Hormuz, the key passage for gas, oil, and other strategic goods that Iran has brought under its control. A weapon of mass economic destruction that has served it, until now, to survive an attack that surpassed it militarily.
