A communication line has been established between Iran and the United States in the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran's deputy Foreign minister Kazem Gharibabadi has warned ships against using routes unauthorized by Tehran to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.

The MoU between Iran and the US is a strategic victory for Tehran, as Washington failed militarily and economically to achieve its objectives, forcing the American Empire to accept terms it had long rejected, says a former US official.

Iran’s Foreign Ministry has fiercely condemned a joint statement by the United States and the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) as "meddlesome, irresponsible, and provocative."

Iran warned ships off unauthorized Hormuz routes would not receive safe passage guarantees, as Tehran and Oman agreed to negotiate a framework for the strait's future administration.

Iran must counter Oman's unilateral Strait of Hormuz move and Trump's sabre rattling with coordinated political-military measures, as sovereignty over this strategic chokepoint is the primary security guarantee preventing the enemy from achieving diplomatically what it failed to win through war.

The IRGC Navy strongly warns that safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz is only possible via routes officially designated by the Islamic Republic.
