Abbas Araghchi, Foreign Minister of Iran, on the Strait of Hormuz:
“The Strait of Hormuz is open. It is only closed to the ships and tankers belonging to our enemies—those attacking us and their allies.
Others are free to pass. Many choose not to because of security concerns, but that has nothing to do with us.
I can say clearly that the strait is not closed—it is only closed to United States and Israel vessels, not to others.”
