Iran’s deputy foreign minister blasts US-proposed UN resolution on Strait of Hormuz

Iran strongly condemned Washington’s attempt to push a draft UN Security Council resolution on the Strait of Hormuz, calling it a blatant effort to distort facts and shield the real aggressors. Iranian officials stated that the US and Israeli actions, including sanctions and military provocations, are the root cause of the crisis in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran insists that any resolution addressing maritime security must acknowledge these actions and its legitimate right to defend its national interests.
