Iran proposes seven-day timeline to reopen Strait of Hormuz
The proposal is conditional on the United States meeting Iran’s terms, which have not been detailed in the available account.
Iran has proposed opening the Strait of Hormuz within seven days if the United States meets its conditions, according to a report by Al Jazeera Global News. The proposal was made at the UN General Assembly.
The available account does not specify Iran’s conditions or identify who presented the proposal. It also reports no US response and gives no indication that reopening has begun.
The proposal remains Iran’s position; no agreement is reported. The account does not establish that normal maritime passage has resumed or that a ceasefire has been reached.
Before the war, about 20 per cent of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas passed through the strait, according to background information supplied with the report.
