The conflict with Iran raises the question: when will it reach a conclusion? Iran appears to be employing a strategy of delay, extending peace negotiations indefinitely.

The nation remains in a state of stagnation as long as the Strait of Hormuz stays closed; if oil production does not resume shortly, the wells themselves risk becoming permanently non-functional.
