Abas Aslani, a senior researcher at the Tehran-based Middle East Center for Strategic Studies, said the deadly strikes launched by the United States were a countermeasure to Iran's insistence on the "new security arrangement" issue in the Strait of Hormuz. He said Trump initially viewed the interim deal as an "exit mechanism" to avoid a larger war with Iran. Aslani said: "He is facing pressure from domestic public opinion and is also under pressure from Israel. This may be why he takes such actions to save face." As the situation becomes more complicated, The window for diplomatic resolution is shrinking. He noted that Iran viewed the strikes as an attempt to weaken its control of the Strait of Hormuz, but Tehran held firm despite military pressure. Aslani added: "These recent aggressive actions have been relatively limited in timing, scope and scale...perhaps the United States is not willing to ignite the powder keg of regional conflict." However, the situation remains extremely unstable. "This is tantamount to playing with fire. Any miscalculation may cause the situation to get out of control and turn into a regional war. Although it has not reached that point yet, this situation is very likely to happen."
