The connection is not simply that a nuclear-armed Iran would be more willing to close the strait — though that proposition has its own merit. It is that the negotiations over the nuclear program, the sanctions imposed to pressure it, and the diplomatic settlements that have attempted to resolve it are all embedded in the same geopolitical relationship that determines whether the strait operates as a commercial corridor or a conflict zone. The nuclear file and the Hormuz file are the same file.</p>
