Iran gives initial approval to Hormuz mutual blockade plan but rejects nuclear concessions Under the proposal, Iran will reopen the Strait of Hormuz and the United States will lift its naval blockade, with both steps implemented within five days. The initiative is also seeking nuclear concessions from Tehran, including licenses to inspect its nuclear facilities during that period. Tehran refuses any nuclear concession and insists that the nuclear talks will come only after the end of the war, the blockade is lifted and the strait is reopened. Informed sources claim that the plan remains on the agenda as long as the media channels and diplomatic messages continue.
