Iran's foreign ministry said the Strait of Hormuz has become the central focus of talks aimed at ending the war with the United States, according to Anadolu Agency.
A foreign ministry spokesman said that securing the strategic waterway, or restoring security to it, requires specific steps from the American side. The strait is a critical global shipping route through which a significant share of the world's seaborne oil passes.
Conditions for a Resolution
The spokesman's comments suggest that Tehran views stability in the strait as a precondition for broader de-escalation, tying progress in negotiations to concrete measures by Washington rather than statements of intent alone.
Neither the exact steps Iran is seeking from the United States nor a timeline for the talks were detailed in the reported remarks. The Strait of Hormuz has repeatedly featured in regional tensions, given its role as a chokepoint for international energy trade.
The statement comes against the backdrop of continuing hostilities between Iran and the United States, with both sides periodically exchanging signals about the terms under which a ceasefire or broader settlement might be reached.
