Why It Matters
The Strait of Hormuz is one of the world's most important routes for transporting oil. Tensions between Iran and the USA have been going on for years.
According to Parliament Speaker Mohammed Bagher Ghalibaf, Iran is linking the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz to the fulfillment of seven preconditions by the USA.
Ghalibaf, who is also Iran's chief negotiator, said the time for waiting and dictating unilateral demands was over, according to the state news agency Irna. Iran's position is completely clear and final.
According to Ghalibaf, the sea route, which is important for international energy trade, will remain closed until the seven conditions based on the interim agreement of June 2026 are met. According to its own information, Tehran sent the corresponding list of demands to the US government via the mediator Qatar.
