> US Vice President JD Vance declined to say whether Washington would end its war with Iran before the November midterm elections. He said there would be no artificial timeline and argued that the current phase should not be called a war because there is no active shooting. Vance also said only US action can ensure Iran does not disrupt global energy markets.
