Iran's Ghalibaf: Strait of Hormuz won't return to pre-war status, US must accept terms

protothema.gr (Greek) —

Iranian parliament speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said the Strait of Hormuz will not return to its pre-war status, stating the ball is in the Americans' court. Ghalibaf told Al Jazeera that Tehran wants to end the war, but only if the US accepts its terms, based on a seven-point framework proposed by Iran. The strait carried one-fifth of global hydrocarbon exports before the war began on February 28 with US-Israeli strikes on Iran, which now targets unauthorized ships while the US blocks Iranian ports.
