Iran says Hormuz Strait will remain closed until US meets conditions
Most outlets reported that Iran’s top negotiator, Mohammad Bagher Qalibaf, stated the Hormuz Strait will remain closed until the United States fulfills certain conditions. The framing varied slightly, with some outlets referring to the conditions as part of a "Pakistan-brokered memorandum" or "interim deal," while others described them more generally as "demands" or "commitments." Arab News Pakistan and The Nation explicitly named the Pakistan-brokered agreement, while others like Daily Times and Aaj News used terms like "interim deal" or did not specify the origin of the conditions. All excerpts emphasized the conditional reopening of the Strait and the inclusion of lifting sanctions or a naval blockade as part of the demands.
