Tehran Says Strait of Hormuz Opens If Conditions Met
Iran announced that the opening of the Strait of Hormuz is contingent upon Washington accepting Tehran's conditions, which could impact the resumption of oil exports halted for five months due to tensions. Tehran stated that reopening the strait depends on a full understanding with the United States and the latter’s withdrawal from interference in regional negotiations, emphasizing that the strait is a strategic power element rather than just an economic water passage. Meanwhile, officials from Oman and Iran announced progress in negotiations over a new shipping route, but certain conditions remain, including compensation for American violations. The details of the arrangements will be determined after resolving technical and legal issues. The officials also pointed out that tensions continue to persist, with ongoing Iranian attacks and interventions, amidst discussions about the possibility of resuming Iraqi oil exports in coordination with Tehran.
