Iran: Hormuz shipping resumes after US conditions
The article indicates that Iran has not yet made a decision to resume negotiations with the United States regarding shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. Iranian Foreign Minister confirmed that the messages exchanged via Qatar and Pakistan are not considered official negotiations, emphasizing that shipping will halt or resume depending on Washington's meeting of Iran’s conditions. He also clarified that control over the strait lies solely with Iran, and that lifting the blockade requires explicit Iranian acceptance. He stressed that the Strait of Hormuz will only be opened or closed by Iran’s order. This comes amid a noticeable decline in ship movements through the strait, with Iranian warnings that ships passing without permission could be targeted, following attacks on two ships belonging to ADNOC during their transit. These positions highlight ongoing tensions and disagreements between Iran and the West regarding navigation through this vital channel, which used to see over 130 ships daily before the recent escalation.
