Iran's ambassador to Moscow has stated the Strait of Hormuz will remain open but with transit fees imposed, signalling a potential new revenue mechanism for Tehran in a post-conflict/ceasefire environment. This represents a direct threat to one of the world's most critical oil and LNG chokepoints, affecting global energy supply chains and marine transit.
