Iranian Ambassador to Russia Kazem Jalali said that the United States should accept the new legal status of the Strait of Hormuz, which will be determined by Iran and Oman.

In mid-June, the United States and Iran signed a memorandum to launch the process of concluding a peace agreement, but soon a new round of escalation began and the parties resumed exchanging blows.

MOSCOW, September 23 - RIA Novosti. The United States must accept the new legal status of the Strait of Hormuz, which will be determined by Iran and Oman, for shipping through it, Iranian Ambassador to Russia Kazem Jalali said.

“If they (the United States - ed.) want navigation through the Strait of Hormuz now, they must accept a new legal status of this strait, which will be determined by the two owners of this strait - Iran and Oman,” the ambassador said in an interview with the Vedomosti newspaper.
