Fmr. State Dept. Official: U.S. Could Declare Victory and Leave, While the Rest of the World Negotiate its Status in Strait of Hormuz

EYRE: “ Actually, that was one of the most interesting things that happened in the last 24 hours. It wasn‘t project freedom, it was Iran announcing expanding the their zone of control to encompass fujairah, which, as you point out, is where their their pipeline ends, circumventing the strait. So Iran clearly wanted to escalate. And the uae is the favorite target. What it wants to do. Regional escalation. Where does it end again, at some point, either the U.S. is just going to declare victory and leave, leaving it for the rest of the world to negotiate the status of the Strait of Hormuz. Perhaps there could be temporary tolling. No one wants that. But if it‘s temporary and a minimal fee, the countries that will suffer disproportionately are the gulf countries.”
