I guess now both countries will release each others tankers and be done with these Hostilities , let the peace prevail in the region .

No it is not.
Iran seized a SWEDISH tanker.
It is flying a British flag, but the British has no reason to negotiate.

Its owned by the swedes but its still a British tanker.

Except Iran showed their incompetence by seizing the SWEDISH tanker.
STENA is a Swedish company.

It was not running for STENA on this one. The operator was another UK company, NORTHERN MARINE MANAGEMENT LIMITED. More than UK FoO.

The tanker which England seized wasn't Iranian either.

MESDAR has reversed course again and continues to S.Arabia. I think Iran let it go.

UK was on high alert

USS Boxer was on stand by

And Iranian still managed to sieze the tanker

This alone shows Iran is NOT a joke

If Iran seized a "Swedish tanker" then why did UK govt just convene an emergency meeting regarding the tanker seizure? something's not adding up..

 

[Mithridates]

No it is not.
Iran seized a SWEDISH tanker.
It is flying a British flag, but the British has no reason to negotiate.

[Dante80]

Good point. Didnt think about this. Looks like Iran is doing "point and pluck out" tactic.

Also, it seems Iran will never close the strait of hormuz literally, i suspect Iran will keep attacking and disrupting veseels and equipment of hostile countries in the Persian Gulf. Most white, western countries will send warships to PG after Trump convenes his planned-but-disastrous meeting of 65 nations to discuss security in the Persian Gulf.
