Чойта вдругU.S. Ambassador to the United Nations (UN) Mike Waltz on Sunday reiterated his push for the international coalition’s security council to pass a resolution condemning the Iranian government’s restrictions on shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said Tuesday that the Trump administration, alongside Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Qatar, drafted a UN Security Council Resolution to “defend freedom of navigation” in the waterway, through which the Islamic Republic has restricted shipping since the U.S. and Israel launched the war on Feb. 28.
“No country can do what Iran is doing in international waterways,” Waltz told host Martha Raddatz on ABC’s “This Week.”
“We cannot have a conflict between two countries, whether it’s over a border, resources, a nuclear program, where one side responds by holding the entire world’s economies hostage, by throwing sea mines out in international waterways,” he later said. “Can you imagine if a country did that in the Strait of Gibraltar or the [Strait] of Malacca?”
