Iraqi: It is impossible to bomb and threaten Iran and expect security and ship traffic to return to normal

The Minister of Foreign Affairs at the press conference:

The claim that Iran is on the verge of obtaining nuclear weapons is a baseless claim. Iran has been a member of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) since 1970 and has declared its peaceful nuclear program.

🔹 Iran was under extensive supervision by the IAEA, and it is not possible to carry out a ground attack on the peaceful nuclear program supervised by the agency at the same time.

The security of shipping and traffic in the Strait of Hormuz will not be restored by military means, threats, blockade or economic pressure.

The Strait of Hormuz was open until February 28, 2026. The security and shipping situation in this area is a direct result of recent developments and hostile actions.

You can't bomb a country and then threaten it and expect security and ship traffic to automatically return.
