They discussed the ongoing situation in the Middle East, including the importance of keeping the Strait of Hormuz open,\u201d Gor wrote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Strait of Hormuz is a narrow but extremely important waterway between the Persian Gulf and the Gulf of Oman. A large portion of the world\u2019s oil shipments passes through this route every day. Any disruption in this passage can quickly affect global oil prices and energy supplies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recent tensions in the region have already slowed movement in the area, raising fears of supply shortages and higher fuel prices worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Trump delays possible strike on Iran<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The phone call between the two leaders came a day after President Trump announced that the United States would temporarily halt a planned attack on Iran. Trump said his administration had held \u201cproductive\u201d discussions with Tehran.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He also indicated that the planned strike on Iranian power plants would be delayed by five days, provided the Strait of Hormuz is reopened and normal shipping resumes. However, Iranian leaders have strongly rejected Trump\u2019s claims about negotiations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trump and PM Modi discussed the ongoing situation in West
