What next for the Strait of Hormuz? Iran is ready to open it, but a condition has been set. "The ball is in the USA's court"

Iran has expressed readiness to reopen the Strait of Hormuz within two days if the U.S. meets its demands, according to Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Bagei. Following negotiations in Doha, Bagei stated that the ball is now in the U.S. court. He emphasized that reopening the strait and restoring security depends on the fulfillment of Iran's conditions, including the lifting of sanctions and the right to continue its nuclear program. The Iranian government has not disclosed the full list of demands but insists that a final agreement cannot be reached until the U.S. ends its maritime blockade. Iran hopes for a diplomatic resolution, depending on Washington's rationality.
