Iran State Media: Hormuz Administration to Be Settled via Regional Dialogue

⚓ HORMUZ — Iran wants neighbors to administer the strait, not Washington. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: "Regional dialogue" means Gulf states — not the US — as the legitimizing mechanism for Hormuz governance. Tehran frames reopening as a sovereign regional arrangement, sidelining CENTCOM's role. This lets Khamenei claim he restored the strait without yielding to American military pressure. But Gulf monarchies that just absorbed Iranian missiles are now being asked to co-administer with Tehran. Watch Riyadh's response.
