‘The route of Hormuz is open for India’, know which other countries Iran has given exemption to

Mumbai: Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Argchi announced on Thursday that his country has allowed ships of all friendly nations, including India, to pass through the Strait of Hormuz. Iran’s Mumbai-based Consulate General posted on This decision is considered very important for global trade, especially the supply of oil and fertilizer.

The decision came just after Guterres’ statement

Let us tell you that this decision has come just after the statement of United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres. Guterres had appealed for the immediate opening of the Strait of Hormuz. He wrote on Twitter, ‘The long-term closure of the Strait of Hormuz is stopping the movement of oil, gas and fertilizer. This is happening at a crucial time in the planting season across the world. Civilians in the region and beyond are suffering serious harm and living in extreme insecurity. The United Nations is working to reduce the consequences of war. By stopping the fighting we can avoid all the problems.

Guterres appealed to end the fighting

Appealing to America, Israel and Iran to end the ongoing war in West Asia, Guterres said, ‘My message to America and Israel is that the time has come to end the war. Human suffering is increasing, civilian deaths are occurring and it is having a devastating impact on the global economy. My message to Iran is to stop attacking neighboring countries that are not involved in this conflict. Earlier on March 25, the Iranian mission in New York had announced at the X that they would allow ‘non-enemy ships’ to pass through the Strait of Hormuz.
