Iran: Strait of Hormuz open to friendly-minded countries

The Strait of Hormuz remains open to commercial traffic from "friendly-minded countries," claims Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.

Ships have been asked to coordinate their passage with Iranian forces to ensure safe transit, he said, according to ANSA.

The Strait of Hormuz, as we see it, is not closed - especially not to friendly countries, he told Indian media in connection with the BRICS foreign ministers' meeting in Delhi.

Ships from all other countries are only asked to coordinate their passage with our armed forces.
