US Iran War: After the ceasefire, the ship has been allowed to pass through the Strait of Hormuz, the most discussed topic in the Iran War, from the Iranian side. This is the first ship which was allowed to pass through this waterway after the ceasefire. Meanwhile, Iran has demanded one dollar per barrel for oil passing through Hormuz. There has been a demand to pay it in cryptocurrency. The reason for this payment is that Iran wants to maintain its control over this important waterway.
What information did spokesperson Hussaini give?
Hamid Hosseini, a spokesman for the Association of Exporters of Oil, Gas and Petrochemical Products of Iran, told the Financial Times that Iran wants to collect toll fees from any tanker passing through there. Wants to assess every ship.
Husseini said Iran needs to keep an eye on what is coming in and out of the Strait of Hormuz to ensure that these two weeks are not used for arms embezzlement.

Hussaini’s industrial union works closely with the government. He has further said that everything can pass through there. This process will take time for each ship. Iran is in no hurry. Decisions on the conditions for passing through the Strait of Hormuz are taken by Iran’s Supreme National Security Council.
What kind of demands can Iran make from any tanker?
Now in such a situation, Hussaini’s comments indicate that Iran will demand from any tanker to use the northern route close to its coastline. This raises the question whether ships belonging to Western or Gulf countries will be willing to take the risk of passing through there. Hussaini has said that every tanker will have to email the authorities about its cargo. After this Iran will tell them how much toll to pay in digital currencies.
He said that this fee is one dollar per barrel of oil. It also added that empty tankers can pass without any hindrance. Hosseini further said that once the email arrives, Iran completes its assessment, then the shippers are given a few seconds to pay in Bitcoin. So that it can be decided that they cannot be tracked or confiscated due to restrictions.
