Iran’s chief negotiator calls deal a ‘failure’ for US, says Tehran to charge Hormuz shipping fees after 60 days
Iran’s chief negotiator says the deal with Washington to end the Middle East war after more than three months is a “failure” for the United States.
“The agreement is a record of US failure. People will see it and judge,” Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf says on state TV after the text was released by both sides.
He also repeats that Tehran will charge ships crossing the Strait of Hormuz after a 60-day fee-free period stipulated in the memorandum of understanding with the US.
Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf says the “Strait of Hormuz will not return to pre-war conditions,” adding: “Iran has the right to sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz and of course we will receive a fee for services.”
