A senior Iranian official told the Al-Mayadeen channel that the agreement regarding the Strait of Hormuz will be postponed indefinitely as long as the United States continues to issue threats against Iran, according to the report.
The statement, attributed to a senior Iranian official by Al-Mayadeen, reiterates Tehran's position that diplomatic progress on the Strait of Hormuz — a critical global energy chokepoint — is conditional on Washington ceasing what Iran describes as threats. The comment comes amid the ongoing standoff between the US and Iran over the strategic waterway, which has been a focal point of tensions and negotiations in recent months. The Zioneer has previously reported on multiple rounds of statements and threats from both sides regarding the Hormuz issue.
