El republicano no quiere que la guerra contra Irán, país aliado de China, arruine la fastuosa recepción que le brindará Xi el jueves y el viernes.
"Tendremos una larga conversación al respecto", dijo Trump el martes a los periodistas que acudieron a presenciar su partida de la Casa Blanca.

Good morning, world.
The peace talks between the United States and Iran have been stuck for a month. On Sunday, President Trump dismissed Iran’s most recent demands as “TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!” According to Iran’s state broadcaster, the country’s leaders wanted the U.S. to pay war reparations, end sanctions and — crucially — recognize Iran’s sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz.
Iran’s chokehold on the strait and the U.S. blockade are a source of global economic pain. But the ships occasionally making it out — a Russian oligarch’s yacht, two German cruise ships and the odd L.N.G. tanker — have also become a source of fascination. How did they pull it off? Who is allowed

Indonesian officials said they are aware of the reports that Iranian crude oil tankers are transiting the Lombok Strait and cited the right of free passage. The statements came after reports by TankerTrackers.com that two Iranian-flagged crude oil tankers have slipped past the U.S. blockade and are routing through the passage east of Bali as an alternative to the more closely tracked Malacca Strait.
La crisis del estrecho de Ormuz será recordada por muchas cosas, pero su legado más trascendental quizás sea uno que apenas ha entrado en el debate público. Ha acelerado el giro geográfico de Asia, alejándose de Oriente Medio y acercándose a una región que la mayoría de las capitales asiáticas han tratado hasta ahora como periférica: el Ártico.
