Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said trust between Arab nations and Iran must be restored in order to resolve the crisis surrounding the Strait of Hormuz, according to remarks reported by TASS.
Lavrov said Russia views establishing trust in relations between Persian Gulf coastal states — Arab nations and Iran — as a precondition for resolving the crisis.
The Strait of Hormuz is a critical waterway for global oil shipments, and tensions involving Iran and Gulf Arab states have periodically raised concerns about the security of transit through the strait.
TASS did not report additional detail on the specific measures Lavrov believes are needed.
