Iran could reopen the Strait of Hormuz within seven days if the United States accepts a proposal conveyed through Qatar, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Friday. Speaking to reporters in New York on the sidelines of the 81st UN General Assembly, Araghchi said Washington would need to act during the first four or five days, enabling the strait to reopen on day six, with negotiations on a final agreement starting on day seven. He said the requested US measures were already set out in a memorandum of understanding signed in Islamabad in June. Iran says it supports safe navigation through the strategic waterway but blames subsequent US military action for disrupting implementation of the agreement. Tehran remains open to diplomacy but is seeking credible assurances against renewed US attacks before resuming negotiations.
