While talking to journalists, the American official said that this process will move forward together. He told that after the opening of the Strait of Hormuz and relaxation of the blockade, in the next phase the work of removing mines from the sea route i.e. de-mining will be done.

Hormuz is very important for global energy supply

The Strait of Hormuz is considered one of the most important maritime trade routes in the world. A large part of the oil and gas coming out of the Gulf region reaches the global markets through this route. This waterway remained a major center of tension during the recent conflict.

The goal is to restore maritime security and movement.

The purpose of the proposed agreement is not only to open the waterway but also to ensure maritime security and restore unhindered movement of ships. Under this, a plan is also being made to remove security risks and dangers related to mines.
