Amid escalating tensions, Iran has set firm conditions for reopening the Strait of Hormuz, insisting it will remain closed until a permanent peace agreement is achieved. Rejecting temporary ceasefires, Tehran outlined four key demands: a complete end to war, no short-term truce, guaranteed non-aggression from the United States and Israel, and using Hormuz as leverage. Iran also dismissed negotiations under pressure and mocked Donald Trump’s deadline with sarcastic remarks online. As the strategic oil route remains restricted, the standoff intensifies, raising concerns over global energy stability and highlighting Hormuz’s central role in the geopolitical conflict. (PC: X)
