Vice President JD Vance is heading to Switzerland for new talks with Iran after Tehran announced it had closed the Strait of Hormuz, citing Israeli operations in Lebanon. President Trump has threatened potential tolls on the strait if the talks collapse. Outlets from Bloomberg to Al Jazeera have quickly picked up the story.
The talks in Switzerland could determine whether the Strait of Hormuz reopens or remains closed, with further escalation possible. A failure to reach a deal might prompt Trump to follow through on the toll threat, while an agreement could ease global shipping concerns.
