Iranian officials say they plan to implement access and fee systems for ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz

BlockBeats News, on March 30, Aladdin Boroujerdi, a member of the National Security and Foreign Policy Commission of the Iranian Islamic Parliament, stated on March 30 local time that, in light of the current international security situation and external threats, Iran is seriously considering withdrawing from the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons and plans to implement stricter access and fee systems for vessels passing through the Strait of Hormuz.

Boroujerdi also stated that Iran currently has complete control over this strategic waterway. He revealed that Iran plans to establish a brand new management system for the strait, aiming to model it after Turkey’s management of the Bosporus Strait and Egypt’s management of the Suez Canal, requiring vessels passing through the strait to obtain permission from Iran and pay corresponding tolls and service fees.
