  8. Video - IRGC: Re-opening Strait of Hormuz depends on US accepting its conditions

    The re-opening of the Strait of Hormuz depends on whether the US will accept Iran's conditions, a spokesperson for the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps said on Saturday.

    He said that the ongoing talks with Oman will not be the deciding factor in whether Iran re-opens the strait, but that it instead rests on how the US moves forward.

    Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Aragchi said that #Iran and #Oman were close to reaching an agreement over shipping through the vital waterway, with Reuters citing a #US official who said that they expect a deal soon.
