Yazdi, reacting to Araqchi’s remarks about imposing fees on ships in the Strait of Hormuz, described the move as illegal and asked what exactly was meant by “which law.”

He also said that even if we have control over the Persian Gulf, if we cannot make use of that position, what is the value of such a title?

The remark was published on the “War News” channel and refers to the debate over using the Strait of Hormuz’s strategic position within the framework of international law.
