Iranian Parliament Speaker Bagher Ghalibaf has warned that the country could close the Strait of Hormuz if the United States maintains its blockade. In a post on social media platform X, Ghalibaf stated that vessels would require Iran’s permission to pass through the waterway. He led Iran’s delegation in recent talks with the United States held in Islamabad.
Ghalibaf added that decisions on whether the strait remains open or closed, and the rules governing its control, would be determined on the ground rather than through social media. Earlier, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi announced that commercial shipping through the strait would remain fully open for the remainder of the ceasefire period. Former U.S. President Donald Trump welcomed that move but emphasized that the U.S. naval blockade on Iran would continue until the conflict is completely resolved.
The exchange underscores renewed tensions over the strategic waterway, which remains a critical route for global trade and regional stability.
