Iran's Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said progress requires agreement on Iran's seven conditions, while Iran continues to keep the Strait of Hormuz closed. The US Federal Reserve raised interest rates by 25 basis points on the same day, with Fed Chair Kevin Warsh citing renewed US-Iran fighting and higher petrol prices as factors.
The dispute remains over sequencing: Iran wants US sanctions relief and access to frozen assets before reopening the strait, while Washington wants the strait reopened first. Ghalibaf mocked US monetary policy, posting a version of the Taylor equation and saying “You can't 25bp a chokepoint.” Analysts say Iran is using economic leverage and financial messaging to pressure Washington.
Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf has said progress can only be achieved once Iran's seven conditions are agreed upon. Reports confirm Iran is refusing to reopen the Strait of Hormuz until those conditions are met.
Ghalibaf said Iran's conditions have been repeatedly and clearly stated to mediators. This matches reporting that Iran has set seven conditions and is focused on security in the Strait of Hormuz.
There is no evidence the Pentagon is sending federal prison guards to polls or that the National Guard is mobilized in all 50 states for the election. This is a baseless election conspiracy claim.
Fed Chair Kevin Warsh declined to respond to Trump's comments, saying he would not respond to quotes from public officials, and said the Fed made a good decision. This matches reporting from the press conference. This is a commentary/joke about Fed Chair Warsh's press conference being a “Rorschach test.” It is opinion, not a factual claim. This is an NSFW personal post with no factual claim to check.
