Iran raises ten points concerning the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz

According to Odaily Planet Daily, Iran emphasizes that the presence of US forces is the main source of regional instability, and US bases cannot even guarantee their own security. Iran states that the future of the Persian Gulf should be free from American influence and underscores a "shared destiny" with neighboring Gulf countries. Iran declares that foreign forces are unwelcome in the Persian Gulf, and its own growing influence is part of the new regional order. Iran also points out that controlling the Strait of Hormuz is key to ensuring security and calls for an end to the "hostile use" of the strait.
