Iran sets five US conditions for reopening Strait of Hormuz
伊朗提出重开海峡5个条件
Iran’s Supreme National Security Council secretary stated that the Strait of Hormuz will remain closed unless the United States changes its behavior and meets five conditions, according to multiple Iranian news agencies. The conditions, as reported by Xinhua, include a permanent halt to military action against Iran and its allies, an end to threats and insults, the lifting of a maritime blockade and all sanctions, the return of frozen assets, and compensation for damages. Separately, Iran’s foreign minister indicated a deal with Oman was “close” but not sufficient to reopen the strait, while a Revolutionary Guard spokesperson said reopening hinges solely on full US acceptance of Iran’s terms and an end to interference in regional talks.
