Iranian political analyst Sayed Mustafa Khoshcheshm said there was never a genuine agreement between Iran and the U.S. [1].
This warning comes as military tensions escalate in the region. Any further disruption to the Strait of Hormuz could impact global energy markets and increase the risk of a broader regional conflict.
Khoshcheshm said the U.S. had violated previous understandings between the two nations [1]. He said continued U.S. military strikes could lead to renewed conflict, a cycle that might result in the closure or disruption of the Strait of Hormuz [1].
These statements follow a period of high volatility in diplomatic relations. On June 24, 2026, Iran described a deal to end the Middle East war as a declaration of U.S. defeat [2].
Khoshcheshm said his warnings are intended to deter further U.S. military actions [1]. He said the lack of a formal, honored agreement leaves the region vulnerable to sudden escalations if the U.S. continues its current strike patterns [1].
The Strait of Hormuz remains a primary flashpoint for these tensions. Because the waterway is a critical transit point for oil, any military engagement in these waters has immediate international economic implications [1].
“There was never a genuine agreement between Iran and the U.S.”
The assertion that no genuine agreement exists suggests a total collapse of diplomatic trust between Tehran and Washington. By linking U.S. military strikes directly to the potential disruption of the Strait of Hormuz, Iran is utilizing the threat of economic instability as a strategic deterrent against further Western military intervention in the region.
