Tensions flared yet again over the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday as Iran reversed its opening of the crucial waterway, firing on ships attempting to pass through the channel.

The development comes after the U.S. said it would continue its blockade of Iranian ports.

Meanwhile, the strait’s closure threatens to deepen the global energy crisis.

Pakistan’s mediators are pushing to restart negotiations between the U.S. and Iran, but Tehran’s foreign minister has said the country isn’t ready for new face-to-face talks.

Barbara Leaf, former U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs, joins Global’s Nivrita Ganguly to discuss what negotiators need to prioritize when talks eventually move forward.
