At the mouth of the Persian Gulf, where a fifth of the world's oil passes daily, Iran offered to open the Strait of Hormuz before any nuclear agreement was reached — a gesture of early good faith that the Trump administration declined. The rejection, disclosed publicly on May 2nd, reveals not merely a disagreement over policy, but a deeper conflict over the grammar of diplomacy itself: who moves first, and what that movement means. In the long history of US-Iran relations, the sequencing of concessions has often mattered as much as the concessions themselves, and this moment is no different.
