Iran’s deputy foreign minister, Kazem Gharibabadi, proposes a new temporary plan for the Strait of Hormuz and says Iran will not allow any third country to de-mine the waterway. Both reports describe his position as a warning that Iran intends to control any de-mining activities related to the strait. The accounts agree that the proposal is framed as temporary, though neither source provides detailed operational terms. They also do not specify which third countries might be involved or how Iran’s plan would be carried out instead. The reporting focuses on Iran’s stance toward de-mining efforts by external actors and the conditions it sets. Overall, the sources present the announcement as part of Iran’s broader approach to security in the Strait of Hormuz, reiterating that Iran opposes third-party involvement in de-mining the area.
