Conley says "nothing has shifted on the ground" in the Strait of Hormuz, with little traffic getting through, and argues Iran continues to view the waterway as a key source of leverage. She speaks with Kailey Leinz and Joe Mathieu on the late edition of Bloomberg's "Balance of Power." (Source: Bloomberg)
