Iran mission to UN says only viable solution in the Strait of Hormuz is clear: a permanent end to the war, the lifting of the maritime blockade, and the restoration of normal passage.

Adds, US is pushing a flawed, politically motivated UN Security Council draft resolution under the pretext of “freedom of navigation” to advance its political agenda and legitimise unlawful actions, not to resolve the crisis. Iran calls on Member States to act on the basis of logic, fairness and principle, not pressure, reject the draft, and refrain from supporting or co-sponsoring it.
