According to Press TV, Iranmaintains that all vessels transiting Hormuz must use the navigation routesannounced by the command authorities in Tehran.

    Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi said that"safe passage through Hormuz cannot be guaranteed under ambiguousarrangements, parallel routes, or decision-making mechanisms that disregardIran's role as a littoral state."

    عبور ایمن در تنگه هرمز با ترتیبات مبهم، مسیرهای موازی یا تصمیم‌سازی خارج از ملاحظات ایران، به عنوان دولت‌ ساحلی، تضمین نمی‌شود. هر چارچوب معتبر باید بر هماهنگی با ایران و مفاد بند پنج یادداشت تفاهم اسلام آباد استوار باشد. در غیر این‌صورت، نتیجه، تعلیق مسیر تعیین شده موازی می شود.
