JD Vance warns Iran over attacks on ships

JD Vance says that if Iran keeps shooting at ships, the U.S. will respond forcefully.
The message is focused on maritime security and the risk of renewed escalation.
He said the basic deal was simple: lift the blockade in exchange for stopping attacks on ships.
Markets care because any renewed tension around shipping lanes can quickly feed into oil, insurance costs, tanker routes, and supply-chain risk.
For $WTI and $BRENT, Iran-linked headlines remain a direct volatility trigger.
