QUESTION OF THE DAY: Will a lasting deal to open the Strait of Hormuz be reached?
Matthew Sanders
The showdown over the flashpoint Strait of Hormuz continues into another week as the end of the current, temporary ceasefire draws near.
On Sunday, the United States announced that it had seized an Iranian ship, while the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps said it had once again closed the strait to shipping. Meanwhile, the U.S. Navy continues its blockade of ships heading into Iranian ports.
And a ceasefire that has somewhat eased tensions over the past two weeks is almost over.
Do you think a lasting deal can be reached to open the strait this week? Let us know by voting in the poll.
