Iran says offer to reopen Strait of Hormuz within seven days still stands

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi has confirmed that his country's proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz within seven days remains valid.

Araqchi stated that Iran's position is "completely clear," explaining that Tehran has presented its proposal to Washington, which has provided its feedback. He added that Iran is currently working on drafting its response.

Iran originally put forward the proposal last September, asserting it could reopen the Strait of Hormuz within seven days if the United States eased military pressure and lifted the blockade on Iranian ports.
