TEHRAN, Iranian Parliament Leader Baqir Qalibaf has reacted to US President Donald Trump’s assertion that record amounts of oil are moving through the Strait of Hormuz.
He stated the United States claims Iran does not manage the shipping lane, yet oil prices in world markets are $50 higher compared to before the conflict.Qalibaf stated, “Either the market is silly for purchasing oil at such an elevated cost, or the team making up the US story is tricking people.
For those individuals who trust America, there is a tool printing free Dollars in the Strait of Hormuz—go ahead and grab them.” Meanwhile, Iranian authorities state that Tehran airport stays completely running despite US blocks.
Deeper than 30 international journeys are running from Tehran Airport, while 60 journeys were also run on 23 September, the phase the US blocks were put in place. Based on Iranian authorities, the United States placed blocks related to Iran’s flying sector on 8 September.
Succeeding the blocks, Oman and the UAE paused Iranian journeys, while four Iraqi airports also blocked incoming Iranian journeys. However, Iranian journeys to China, Russia and alternate lands persist to run.
