The US and Iran’s rival blockades of the Strait of Hormuz have turn into a “take a look at of wills”, says BBC’s Chief Worldwide correspondent Lyse Doucet.
Earlier this month, US forces introduced they might intercept or flip again vessels travelling to or from Iran’s coast.
Iran calls the blockade “piracy”, and its prime negotiator, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, has stated reopening the strait is “not attainable” whereas the US maintains its naval blockade.
Lyse Doucet is reporting from Tehran provided that none of her materials is used on the BBC’s Persian Service. These restrictions apply to all worldwide media organisations working in Iran.
