The USA and Iran are trying again to resolve the conflict between them with the help of diplomacy, with the main issue, according to reports, being the Strait of Hormuz. It seems that a few weeks after it was at the top of American targets, Iran has managed to distract Donald Trump's attention from one of the most critical nuclear sites – Fordo Mountain.

The fact that illustrates the Iranian success best is that the Iranians did not have to stop work at the site for this. Furthermore, according to the assessment of Western intelligence sources, work at Fordo Mountain continues vigorously, and the Iranians are doing everything to prepare this dangerous nuclear site.

It is all actually an Iranian deception, which tries to take over the media discourse. In Iran, they are working to move all media attention from the nuclear program to the Strait of Hormuz and the Bab-el-Mandeb, so that the story and media attention will be focused there.

Likewise, another goal, no less important for the Iranians, is stalling for time, from their perspective until November, when Donald Trump's midterm elections will be held. They do this with uncompromising stubbornness, when the message from the Revolutionary Guards says: "We are managing affairs and will not bend an inch."
