Mustafa Khosh-Chesm, a government expert, stated on IRIB that the United States is offering "100 worthless lollipops" to Iran's negotiating team to gain control over the Strait of Hormuz, proposing it be reopened and managed jointly by Iran and Oman with no tolls for 60 days.
Mojtaba Khamenei, in response to an agreement with the United States, stated he had a different opinion but agreed to sign it due to a commitment from Masoud Pezeshkian, the head of the government and Supreme National Security Council. Kamyar Bahramg, an editorial board member of Iran International, noted that Mojtaba Khamenei used ambiguous language to avoid taking responsibility and to maintain internal divisions within the regime.
