In reply to MXT.

“Iran’s parliament wants to close the strategically important Strait of Hormuz. US Vice President JD Vance calls the move a “suicide” in a comment on Sunday. – I mean, their whole economy depends on the Strait of Hormuz, he says in an interview with NBC and continues: – But why would they do that? I don’t think it’s logical – neither for them nor anyone else.”

“New satellite images from Maxar Technologies show the damages to the Iranian nuclear facility Fordow, which the US reportedly attacked with 14 so-called bunker busters during the night to Sunday.

“US Secretary of State Marco Rubio tells Fox News that they have no plans to attack Iran again and instead calls for direct negotiations between Washington and Tehran.
….
White House special envoy Steve Witkoff has, according to Rubio, traveled around the world in recent months trying to reach such an agreement, but Iran has not taken the negotiations seriously. – We do not want a war with Iran, but we want to ensure that they can never manufacture nuclear weapons, he says.”

Impressed that they have the energy to continue, it no longer matters what the UN says or decides.

“The UN Security Council has called for an emergency meeting on the developments between Israel, Iran, and the USA later on Sunday evening, news agencies report. Diplomatic sources told Reuters that Russia, China, and Pakistan are expected to present a resolution for an immediate ceasefire in the Middle East. A proposal that the USA is likely to veto.”

“Iranian residents who spoke to BBC Persian describe their feelings in very different ways after the American attack on nuclear facilities in the country. A woman contacted by the channel says that the uncertainty makes her feel paralyzed.
…
Others express loyalty. – Even though our lives have become harder and our problems worse, we stand by our country until the end.”
