As Trump's navy retreats from Iranian waters, Mojtaba takes over Hormuz? | Iran, USA, MoU, Gulf, oil

As traffic resumes through the Strait of Hormuz following the war, Iran has introduced new regulations for commercial shipping, requiring vessels to register at least 48 hours before transit. Tehran says the measures are necessary because parts of the waterway may still contain mines. For now, no fees will be charged during the 60-day period linked to the U.S.-Iran agreement, though officials have hinted that permanent tariffs could follow later. With around one-fifth of global oil trade passing through Hormuz, the new arrangements could shape future negotiations and influence energy markets worldwide.
