Expert: Iran Shifted Global Focus From Its Nuclear Programme to the Strait of Hormuz

Prof. Scott Lucas of University College Dublin argues that Iran has successfully made the Strait of Hormuz the central issue in the Middle East conflict, displacing its nuclear programme from the spotlight. He characterises the current ceasefire as an unstable equilibrium held together by mutual restraint rather than genuine peace. Lucas highlights a growing three-way divergence between US diplomatic goals, Israeli territorial ambitions, and Iran's push for economic recovery after a devastating conflict.
