The Iranian ambassador to the UN has clarified that Iran does not plan to block or mine the Strait of Hormuz, a vital shipping route for global oil supply.
This statement stands in stark contrast to recent comments made by Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei, which suggested a more aggressive posture regarding the strait.
The Strait of Hormuz is critical for international trade, and any disruption could have significant implications for global oil markets and shipping logistics.
