Iran isolated as of 113 co-sponsors of UN resolution, US envoy says

May 14, 2026, 00:36 GMT+1

US Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz said on Wednesday Iran is “isolated” over what he described as illegal actions in international waters, including mining and imposing tolls on shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.

In a post on X, Waltz said there were 113 co-sponsors of a UN Security Council resolution condemning Iran’s actions, adding that countries including India, Japan and South Korea backed the initiative.
