Attacks, sanctions, negotiations, repeat: is there a way out of the Iran war?
After a month of relative calm, the conflict between the US and Iran reignited in early September 2026, with US strikes on Iran’s Larak Island and Iranian attacks on US targets in Jordan. The war, ongoing for six months, is at a stalemate, with US military and economic pressure failing to break Iran. New US sanctions threaten foreign companies aiding Iran’s oil exports. Both nations face economic strain and internal dissent. Analysts see no quick resolution, with negotiations hindered by leadership divisions and uncertainty over who will make concessions first.
