伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队就霍尔木兹海峡的重新开放问题设置了政治前提。IRGC发言人侯赛因·穆赫比表示，海峡开放取决于伊斯兰共和国的具体机制和条件，与伊朗和阿曼之间的谈判无关[1]。伊朗外交部长阿拉格奇进一步阐述称，霍尔木兹海峡的重新开放取决于其他条件和美国对谅解备忘录违反的补偿[1]。
战争自2月底开始至今已持续五个月，霍尔木兹海峡在此期间基本关闭[1]。该海峡战前曾是全球20%油气贸易的通道[1]，其封锁对国际能源市场造成重大影响。阿联酋指责伊朗自战争开始以来用导弹和无人机攻击其国家石油公司ADNOC的15艘船只，仅本周就有三艘遭袭[1]。伊朗则称这些军事行动是对美以打击的报复[1]。
美国官员周五表示伊朗和阿曼的谈判进展可能导致海峡重新开放[1]。伊朗外长透露与阿曼的谈判已接近最后阶段[1]。
Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has made reopening the Strait of Hormuz conditional on the United States accepting Iranian terms, according to statements from senior officials [1]. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi emphasized that the strait's resumption depends on "other conditions and U.S. compensation for violations of the memorandum of understanding," while IRGC spokesman Hossein Mohbi clarified that "the opening of Hormuz depends on specific mechanisms and conditions of the Islamic Republic and is unrelated to negotiations between Iran and Oman" [1].
The strategic waterway, which previously handled approximately 20 percent of global oil and gas trade, has been severely restricted for five months since the conflict began [1]. The United States indicated on Friday that progress in Iran-Oman negotiations could potentially lead to the strait's reopening, though Iran's foreign minister characterized those talks as having reached a "final stage" [1].
Tensions have escalated over shipping security in the region, with the UAE's National Oil Company ADNOC accusing Iran of attacking its vessels with missiles and drones, claiming 15 ships have been targeted since late February, including three in the current week [1]. Iran has characterized such actions as retaliation for U.S. and Israeli strikes [1].
