Iran: Massoud Pezeshkian denounces the American blockade and predicts its failure

Iranian President Massoud Pezeshkian stated that the naval blockade imposed by the United States against Iranian ports is doomed to fail and may exacerbate tensions in the Gulf. He claimed that this measure violates international law and could destabilize maritime security in the region. Pezeshkian's statements coincide with a rise in oil prices, as markets fear prolonged disruptions to energy flows in this strategic area.
