Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi affirmed that his country will not back down from its conditions for reopening the Strait of Hormuz. He explained that progress toward a solution is contingent upon achieving these conditions, which have been communicated to mediators who clarified Iran's stance to the American side. This came after U.S. President Donald Trump rejected Iran's new proposal, deeming it unacceptable. He viewed Iran's closure of the strait as a predicament for Tehran, which had presented a plan to halt the conflict and resume negotiations over the nuclear issue. The plan included lifting the maritime blockade and releasing frozen assets. Meanwhile, France is preparing a draft resolution in the Security Council to support freedom of navigation in the strait, which has become a central point in the confrontation between Washington and Tehran. The United States considers that Iran should not control the waterways passing through the Omani waters, whereas Iran demands prior authorization for ships and adherence to a specific route.
