Iran has effectively rejected expectations of an imminent reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, laying out sweeping conditions that would require the United States to fundamentally change its policy toward Tehran. In a statement issued by Mohammad Baqer Zolghadr, secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, Tehran said the strait would remain closed until Washington ends what Iran described as its hostile behavior. That uncertainty has kept the energy market on edge. Iran has also been considering restrictions on U.S. and Israeli vessels, while previous proposals for transit fees have added another layer of uncertainty. He also said Iran had told Washington it had no plans to impose tolls, although the U.S. does not fully trust Tehran’s assurances.
