Iran and the US have formed a “line of communication” aimed at ensuring “safe passage” in the Strait of Hormuz, mediators Qatar and Pakistan said in their joint statement on the recently concluded round of talks in Switzerland.
The new communication line has been created to “avoid incidents and miscommunication with the aim of safe passage for commercial vessels through the Strait of Hormuz” for the 60-day period outlined in the initial memorandum, according to the statement.
According to the memorandum, Iran will use its “best efforts” to ensure “safe passage of commercial vessels with no charge” from the Persian Gulf to the Sea of Oman, and vice versa.
The Strait has been a key point of leverage for Iran throughout negotiations. On Saturday, Iran’s military command said it would close the vital waterway in response to Israel’s continued attacks in Lebanon and the US “failing to implement” the agreement to end the war.
Trump threatened to “take over the Strait” in remarks to Fox News Sunday that nearly derailed the negotiations.
CNN has reached out to the White House for comment on the talks.
