Iran’s China envoy promises special treatment for friendly countries in Hormuz

Iran’s ambassador to China announced that ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz will incur new service fees, while emphasizing that friendly nations like China will receive special considerations. This follows a temporary agreement with the U.S. that allowed free passage for 60 days. Despite U.S. objections to Iran’s tolls, the ambassador stated that the fees would be used to enhance security and manage environmental impacts in the strait, which is crucial for global oil and gas shipments.
