Strait of Hormuz is leverage in talks over frozen assets, Iran MP says
Ali Khezrian, a member of Iran’s parliament said on Monday that the Strait of Hormuz could be used as leverage in negotiations with other countries over Iran’s frozen funds, adding that passage for ships could be made conditional on any agreement.
Khezrian said in an interview with state television that Iran’s power and influence had led some regional countries, despite being traditional US allies, to oppose Washington’s use of their military bases.
