Iran's ambassador to the UN, Ali Bahreini, stated that Tehran does not intend to block the Strait of Hormuz, contradicting the new Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei's threats. Bahreini emphasized Iran's view of the Strait as a 'Straight of Peace' despite ongoing military actions in the region. He acknowledged the negative impact of the conflict on Iran's economy but affirmed the country's readiness for a prolonged war and willingness to negotiate, criticizing the US for its miscalculations in the conflict.
