Iran has reaffirmed its commitment to implementing measures under the Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) aimed at ensuring the security and navigation of vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. In an interview with the state news agency IRNA, Brigadier General Mohammad Akrami Nia, spokesperson for Iran’s armed forces, called on the United States to refrain from interference and to comply with the terms of the agreement.

Akrami Nia accused the US, particularly under President Donald Trump, of repeatedly violating international agreements, citing Washington’s withdrawal from the nuclear deal as an example. He alleged that the US is attempting to establish an “illegal corridor” south of the Strait, contrary to the MoU, and warned that unilateral American actions threaten regional stability. He emphasized that Iran, in coordination with Oman, manages navigation and transit in the area based on mutual understanding.

The Iranian military spokesman cautioned that any action against Iran’s islands, coasts, or military sites would face a “severe and extensive” response. He added that US activities endanger even its own allies’ security and noted that Iran continues to strengthen its defense readiness following the ceasefire and MoU implementation.
