Iran Warns of Regional Oil Disruption Amid Rising US-Iran Tensions
Iran's Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf warned that if Tehran is prevented from selling oil, no other country in the region will be able to do so, signaling potential wider disruptions to regional energy supplies. He emphasized that the security of the Strait of Hormuz depends on the absence of US forces and stated the waterway would not return to pre-conflict conditions. These remarks followed US President Donald Trump's threat to target Iranian infrastructure if Tehran attacks ships in the Strait, escalating tensions between the two nations.
