Iran’s leader released a statement through state-run media that Tehran will determine new rules over the disputed Strait of Hormuz as a ceasefire between the Iranian regime and the United States holds up.
In a statement released by state-run PressTV, Mojtaba Khamenei—who was named the country’s leader in March—said that Iran “will secure the Persian Gulf region and will dismantle the hostile enemy’s abuses of this waterway” and that the strait “will be managed by new rules.”
