Iran Rejects US Response to Conditions for Reopening Strait of Hormuz
Iran has rejected the United States' response to its seven conditions for reopening the strategic Strait of Hormuz, describing it as "insufficient." Mohsen Rezaei, Iran's security chief, stated that some conditions remain unclear and that Iran will not negotiate or reopen the strait until all are met. The US replied via Qatari intermediaries amid ongoing diplomatic efforts to restore maritime passage, which is vital for global energy shipments. The White House has not commented on the matter.
