Strait Gives Iran Significant Leverage in Talks: Sherman

Iran's leverage in negotiations is significant but the actual agreement is likely to differ from earlier frameworks.

Former Deputy Secretary of State Wendy Sherman states that Iran has substantial leverage in negotiations due to its control over the Strait of Hormuz, despite a decline in its military capabilities. She indicates that both parties are motivated to reach an agreement, but the outcome may differ significantly from the 2015 nuclear deal.
