According to information from the Israeli portal Ynet, a serious altercation occurred during a telephone conversation between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Donald Trump regarding strikes on Iran. However, the Israeli Prime Minister's Office denied this information, stating that the conversation was not difficult at all.
Economic consequences and the regional situation
The conflict between the countries has led to serious disruptions in global logistics. In particular, shipping through the Strait of Hormuz has almost completely ceased, which has triggered a rise in global fuel prices.
Previously, the Financial Times reported that Netanyahu contacts Trump daily, calling for the resumption of military action against Iran. Meanwhile, in mid-June, the US and Iran signed a memorandum to launch a peace process, but three weeks later, the parties began exchanging strikes again.
Proposals to unblock the strait
In late September, Tehran proposed a plan to open the Strait of Hormuz for seven days in exchange for lifting the maritime blockade and export restrictions, but Donald Trump rejected this proposal. According to Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, the implementation period of the plan was successfully reduced to two days, and the decision now depends on the US position.
