Iran has granted passage through the Strait of Hormuz to ships from countries friendly to Tehran, including Russia, according to Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi in an interview with Press TV.

"We have allowed some countries, which we have named as our friends, to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. We have allowed China, Russia, India, Iraq and Pakistan," Araqchi stated.

He stressed that Tehran has "no reason to allow our enemy to pass through the Strait of Hormuz."

  • A day earlier, U.S. President Donald Trump had mentioned an unspecified "gift" from Iran related to oil, gas, and the Strait of Hormuz, saying that Washington and Tehran had reached an agreement for peace.
