Washington's blockade of Iran has pushed the country towards military escalation as Tehran threatens retaliation in response to an economic pressure campaign that is forcing talks to break down. The US decision to abandon talks and increase tensions has left Iran feeling cornered and with no choice but to consider a wider war to force negotiators back to the negotiating table. This could lead to a heightened risk of conflict in the region, with potential consequences for global stability. Diplomatic efforts are now at a standstill as all sides dig in their heels.
