Iran media says Tehran urges IMO to reject joint proposal on Hormuz

Iran criticized a joint proposal submitted by the UAE and its allies to the International Maritime Organization (IMO) during its 187th council session, calling it politically motivated. The proposal was accused of shifting blame to what Iran termed the 'victim of aggression' and ignoring regional instability causes. Iran argued the proposal used the IMO as a platform for political pressure under the guise of maritime safety. It claimed that the use of UAE and other countries' assets by the US and Israel in attacks on Iran constituted an act of aggression under international law. Iran urged the IMO Council not to adopt or circulate documents assigning international responsibility to member states or addressing sovereignty and legal status issues. The country attributed current Gulf and Hormuz region tensions to US and Israeli actions against Iran.
