Iran Says It Would Reopen Strait of Hormuz in 2 Days as Part of U.S. Deal
Iranian officials spoke of some progress in negotiating to reopen the strait, a vital oil and gas shipping lane, even as they prepare for all-out war.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets frame the story around US-Iran negotiations and a Gulf reaction of caution mixed with hopes for diplomacy. The Guardian US foregrounds the talks’ third day and says Gulf officials are “braced for the worst” while Qatar tries to negotiate the release of $6bn in Iranian assets; the South China Morning Post instead centers the UAE, quoting a senior official on hoping for a diplomatic breakthrough while being “prepared for the worst.”
