Iran has said it is still awaiting an official response from the United States regarding its proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a key maritime corridor that sees a large portion of the world's oil traffic.
The Iranian government has not yet released details of the proposal, but it has indicated that the reopening would be contingent on the United States providing a formal reply.
Officials from Iran have reiterated that the Strait of Hormuz remains a critical shipping lane, with a significant share of global oil exports passing through the narrow waterway between Iran and Oman.
While the United States has not yet issued a response, the situation underscores the ongoing diplomatic tensions over maritime security and energy trade in the region.
Iran’s statement comes amid broader discussions about the safety and freedom of navigation in the Gulf, a topic that has long been a point of contention between Tehran and Washington.
