This is not a ceasefire; it's halftime! The next round could be even more intense.

If we consider this conflict as a game, then it's not over—it's just halftime.
The ceasefire was broken on the first day, which essentially shows one thing: both sides are not truly ready to stop.
Israel continues airstrikes, Iran closes the strait and threatens retaliation—this rhythm is more like a "warm-up upgrade" than a conclusion.
Many people misjudge this point: they see "ceasefire" as a trend signal.
But in geopolitics, a ceasefire often just means: 👉 Adjust the rhythm 👉 Redeploy 👉 Test the bottom line
And not the end of the conflict.
Looking at negotiations: the talks on the 11th are now shrouded in a shadow.
Iran says three key terms have been broken, but this actually is a "price increase." It means: you can talk, but the conditions need to be renegotiated.
This is a typical negotiation strategy—create tension first, then raise the stakes.
So what’s next?
Most likely: 👉 Small-scale conflicts continue 👉 Negotiations are intermittent 👉 Market fluctuates repeatedly
The real risk is not an outbreak but delays.
Because the longer it drags on, the more variables there are.
To sum up: this is not the end but a more complicated beginning.
