BlockBeats news, April 12, according to CNN, an Iranian security source stated that the Strait of Hormuz will remain blocked until Iran and the U.S. reach a “common framework” to continue negotiations.
The source said that the U.S. has made “excessive demands” on multiple issues, including key waterways, which have so far prevented both sides from reaching common ground and advancing the talks.
The source stated: “Iran is in no hurry to take action.” He also mentioned that Tehran has conveyed to the U.S. that, before a common framework is established, “the status quo of the Strait of Hormuz will remain unchanged,” and “even the previously agreed number of vessel passages will not be achievable.” If U.S. negotiators do not present “a realistic prospect,” the strait will continue to be closed.
