The head of Iran's parliament, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, warned that his country could take drastic measures against one of the world's most important sea routes if American pressure on Iranian ports continues.
In a reaction published on the X platform, Ghalibaf stated that closing the Strait of Hormuz remains an option if the United States does not lift the blockade on Iran.
According to him, this situation could directly affect international shipping traffic in the region. He also accused US President Donald Trump of false statements, emphasizing that his rhetoric has not brought results either in conflict or in negotiations.
"The US President made seven claims in one hour and all seven were false. They did not win the war with these lies and they certainly will not achieve anything in the negotiations," he said.
Speaking about the strategic importance of the Strait of Hormuz, the Iranian official warned that any continuation of the blockade could lead to new restrictions on the passage of ships, adding that this route can only function under conditions set by Iran.
"With the continuation of the blockade, the Strait of Hormuz will not remain open," he warned, adding that passage can only be allowed through a designated corridor and with the approval of Iranian authorities.
Ghalibaf also stressed that such issues cannot be resolved through statements on social media, hinting that tensions between the two countries remain high.
