Iran has announced it will resume strict control over the Strait of Hormuz. This decision was reportedly made because the United States allegedly broke a promise regarding the removal of sea blockades targeting vessels heading to Iranian ports. During a statement broadcast on Saturday by state Iranian television, it was claimed that the US continues to restrict the freedom of movement for ships. Consequently, the situation in the Strait of Hormuz will remain under close surveillance until the United States restores full freedom of navigation for all vessels visiting Iran. The Strait of Hormuz is a strategically vital waterway through which a significant portion of global oil trade passes. Control over this passage carries wide-reaching geopolitical implications and has already caused fluctuations in oil prices in recent weeks.
