Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson: The United States seeking help from Russia shows that the crisis is still ongoing
BlockBeats news,October 12, according to the Iranian Tasnim News Agency, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said that it is every country's right to make decisions based on national interests and national welfare, and that Iran also uses its own priorities and interests as the basis for decision-making when dealing with various issues.
The relevant issue is a matter between Russia and the United States. But regarding the situation in the Strait of Hormuz, there is one point worth considering: if the matter has indeed been resolved as claimed by the US side, then the United States would have no need to seek help from Russia to address the challenges it faces. The US side's request for help is itself clear evidence that the issue is still ongoing.
