❗️UK urges full reopening of Strait of Hormuz
British Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper said on Saturday that the Strait of Hormuz has not yet returned to normal operations despite the ceasefire, calling on Tehran to allow global shipping to fully resume.
“We are at a critical diplomatic moment with a ceasefire now in place … but we don’t yet have normal passage through the strait,” Cooper told Reuters on the sidelines of a diplomacy forum in Antalya.
Cooper said the US-Iran truce must evolve into a durable peace and stressed that reopening the waterway was urgent for the global economy.
“We need the Strait of Hormuz open … because this helps all of our economies right across the world that are currently being held hostage,” she said.
She added that more than 50 countries had supported efforts to ensure freedom of navigation, with over a dozen ready to contribute maritime assistance, including demining and security support for shipping once the war ends.
