Iran offers to reopen Strait of Hormuz if US lifts blockade
Iran proposed reopening the critical Strait of Hormuz within seven days, conditional on the US lifting its economic blockade on Iranian ports. On Thursday in New York, Iranian foreign minister Abbas Araghchi announced that a plan had been submitted to the White House by mediators. The proposal is part of a potential 'phased' solution to the crisis, aiming to end economic costs for both sides.
