Iran Tells Mediators Re-Opening of Hormuz Is Still Limited​

Iran has told mediators it will continue to limit the number of ships allowed to cross the Strait of Hormuz and charge tolls for the remaining period of the cease-fire, officials familiar with the matter said.

Vessels that pass through the waterway will need to coordinate with the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. The IRGC would still be able to block ships that belong to countries Iran deems hostile and is still insisting on a new management system for the strait after a final deal is reached with the U.S. that would allow Tehran to collect tolls, they said..

So not so "wide open" as all that, then.

As suspected.

TAKE: At this point the words mean nothing. Forget Trump's post, forget Araghchi's announcement. Just look at what's actually happening.Hormuz is still basically closed. Only 8-9 ships transited today, same as the last few days. The US Navy blockade is still running.Despite all the announcements, nothing on the ground has actually changed.In this conflict more than any other, social media posts mean very little. Everyone is posting wins they haven't earned. Follow the facts, not the statements. The facts say we're exactly where we were yesterday.
