Kazem Qaribabadi, Deputy for Legal and International Affairs of the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic, said Iran is not in a hurry to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and that, as long as the United States does not return to its commitments, the Islamic Republic will also not take any action to open the strait. Qaribabadi, on 7 Shahrivar 1405, in an interview with IRNA about the latest consultations and the intermediary efforts of countries such as Oman, Pakistan and Qatar regarding negotiations, said Iran has reached an understanding with Oman regarding arrangements for passage through the Strait of Hormuz, but implementing this understanding is conditional on the fulfillment of commitments by the other side, namely the United States.
