IRANIAN Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on Sunday warned against interference in the situation in the Strait of Hormuz following an exchange of fire with the US, saying it could delay the reopening of the route.
“Any interference in this matter, any attempt to create a separate order [of shipping] will complicate the situation and delay the process of opening the Strait of Hormuz, and also increase tensions,” Araghchi said at a press conference with Iraqi Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein.
Iranian Foreign Minister arrived in Iraq on 28 June. The official is scheduled to have talks with Iraqi officials on regional and international developments, as well as ties between the two countries, Iranian Foreign Ministry said.
The US Central Command said American forces carried out strikes against 10 targets in Iran on 27 June. CENTCOM claimed the strikes were carried out in response to Iran’s alleged drone attack on the Panama-flagged M/T Kiku. — SPUTNIK
