Iran urges UN states to reject US-backed Hormuz resolution

Iran urges UN states to reject US-backed Hormuz resolution Iran’s permanent mission to the UN has called on member states to oppose a draft resolution backed by the US and Gulf allies that pressures Tehran to guarantee safe shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. In a post on X, the mission described the proposal as “flawed” and “politically motivated”. “The only viable solution in the Strait of Hormuz is clear: a permanent end to the war, the lifting of the maritime blockade, and the restoration of normal passage,” the mission said.
