Mahmoud Nabavian, Deputy Chairman of the National Security and Foreign Policy Commission of the Islamic Consultative Assembly and a member of the Islamic Republic's negotiating team, wrote on the X network that commercial ships will be allowed passage through the Strait of Hormuz by collecting tolls, and criticized the United States as a "vile evil regime" and "wicked yellow dog," demanding America's retreat and acceptance of a ceasefire in Lebanon. He also dismissed the maritime blockade of Iran's ports by American forces as a failed joke.
