Iran has announced that it will regain full control over the Strait of Hormuz for the next 30 days, according to Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi during a press conference in Baghdad. This follows a peace agreement signed by the United States and Iran on June 17, which includes the reopening of traffic through the strait as part of ending the war. Araghchi emphasized that any foreign interference or attempts to establish parallel structures would complicate the situation and delay the re-opening of this strategically important waterway. The agreement also stipulates that Iran will not charge any fees for the passage of ships during a 60-day negotiation period, although both sides have already violated the ceasefire terms.
