Iran is ready to conclude agreements with European, Asian and Arab countries on the use of the Strait of Hormuz, Head of the Government Information Council Elias Hazrati said.

He stressed that Iran fully controls the Strait of Hormuz while U.S. President Donald Trump is talking nonsense about the Strait of Hormuz.

"Today, we have decided that we may announce an agreement on the Strait of Hormuz. We will invite European, Asian and Arab countries that want to use it to conclude an agreement with us," Elias Hazrati said.

Earlier, the U.S. president said in an address to the nation that shipping through the Strait of Hormuz would be fully restored after the conflict with Iran ends, noting that Tehran itself is interested in selling oil.

According to Trump, the U.S. does not need transit through the Strait of Hormuz, and restoring navigation should be a responsibility of countries that use it to transport oil.
