President Trump imposed a US naval blockade on Iranian ships and ports in the Strait of Hormuz on April 12, 2026, after US-Iran peace talks collapsed amid escalating tensions over Tehran's nuclear program and regional actions. The blockade persists despite incidents like Iranian seizures of vessels on April 22 and US firing on tankers, with Trump announcing a temporary pause in clearance operations on May 5 to prioritize diplomacy. On May 13, Trump arrived in Beijing for a summit with Xi Jinping, leveraging China's role as Iran's top oil buyer to pressure for de-escalation and safe passage restoration. Traders eye the talks' outcome and oil market strains from disrupted 25% of global supply, alongside potential naval tests like a Chinese supertanker's recent Gulf transit, as catalysts for an official lift announcement.
