"If the blockade continues, the Strait of Hormuz will not remain open," wrote Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf on X on Saturday night.
US President Donald Trump, for his part, claimed that Iran had agreed to “never again close the strait.” According to Trump, the blockade against Iranian ships in the strait will continue until a peace agreement is reached.
Iran announced on Friday that the strait had been opened to all commercial ships, but Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf reiterated the country's demand that passages must be coordinated with Iranian authorities.
