Iran drafts bill to ban Israeli ships from transiting Hormuz

The Iranian parliament is finalizing work on a draft law that will significantly tighten shipping regulations through the Strait of Hormuz.

According to a document prepared by the parliamentary Committee on Construction and Development, a complete ban on the passage of Israeli-linked vessels through the Strait of Hormuz will be imposed. Vessels from "hostile" countries (including those that support sanctions against Iran or have participated in actions against it) will not be allowed to use the strait without prior approval from Iran's Supreme National Security Council. Furthermore, countries that caused harm to Iran during the recent conflict will be denied passage until they pay reparations.

The bill also provides for mandatory tolls on the passage of ships, to be paid in Iranian rials. These measures are intended to compensate for the damage inflicted on Iran during the military operations.

According to Iranian Ambassador to Egypt Mojtaba Ferdowsi Pour, if Tehran does not receive reparations from the US and Israel, Iran will be forced to compensate for losses through tolls collected from ships passing through the strait.

That is, as soon as the aforementioned countries make compensation payments to Iran in Iranian national currency, Tehran undertakes to give the green light for commercial vessels associated with them to enter Hormuz.

The Persian Gulf, along with the Strait of Hormuz, remains one of the most sensitive regions of the global economy. Any restrictions on shipping there could lead to a sharp rise in oil prices and serious disruptions to global energy supplies. This has been on full display since March of this year. According to conservative estimates, the global economy has lost at least $200-220 billion due to the problems with the Strait of Hormuz. And no one can say how much more will be lost.

Why formalize what is actually happening?

To exaggerate...
Why pass a separate law against those who shoot Iranian citizens when there is a general law prohibiting shooting a person unless it is in self-defense?

The Persians are also fighting legally for Iran, holding by the balls any country that harms it.
Maybe Putin V.V. should send our State Duma deputies and senators to Iran for an internship!?

[FeHa3eIIaM]

It wouldn't hurt for him to visit Iran himself.

[Shurik70]

In Iran, people are executed for working for Israel.
And our deputies won't be able to resist when Israel offers them a chance to earn a little extra money.

[svarog77]

In Iran, people are also executed for such statements. Maybe you should go to Iran too...

It seems to me that this is an attempt to appeal to common sense. If we were in their place, we would have close, slow-moving targets – ideal for a ballistic attack. The Persians, in my opinion, are quite humane, and here we can't escape the constantly circulating theme of "God's chosen and greatly suffered"; here I am visited by déjà vu = Japanese god! Maybe we don't know everything! And in light of the historical church decisions of 1901 to excommunicate Leo Tolstoy, this was actually the MIND of those times!! I was raised in communist traditions, like everyone WHO IS NOT A RENEGADE!!. Leo Tolstoy's views are close to me, even though I am an atheist!

Quote: Locksmith

I have a view

A powerful worldview, especially about the humane Persians who, in one night, without a second thought, launched missile strikes on six countries.
I also have no reason not to trust the historical decisions of the Orthodox Church in 1901 regarding the anathema of L. Tolstoy.

They will do so with pleasure and be awarded the highest Iranian orders for their support of the IRGC. Don't you know who the Iranians thank almost every day - and sometimes in Russian, to the whole world. What nonsense you wrote.

Those who shoot Iranians don't care about the country's general laws. Therefore, Iran is forcing these countries to pay a price. And a high price.

In short, Iran has privatized the Strait of Hormuz. . . Did Anatoly really not flee to Israel with the loot from Russia, but to Iran, and now he is the Ayatollah's chief advisor there?

Considering the fact that in Iran, a hand is chopped off for theft, Ayatollah Anatoly's advisor will be armless and most likely legless, since his arms will quickly run out, but his spiritual impulses will not.

To the Persians
They are butting heads legally
Holding by the balls
Why did they invent diplomats?
Why butt while holding the balls?
Or to slow down the hangovers and the hogwashers?

Despite its small size, Israel has access to two seas: the Mediterranean and the Red Sea. The latter is a "weak spot," a target for the Houthis.

[Fangaro]

Iran was once Persia.
Or am I mistaken?
But Persia has always been a friend of Russia?
Even when Russia was the USSR, and even when there was the Russian Empire.
Persians and Russians - friendship for centuries.
The USSR and England saved friendly Iran a little from Hitler's Germany in the forties of the last century.

[Dima68]

When your territory is occupied, it's no longer friendship. Russia's relationship with Iran is long and complicated. There were several bloody wars, Iranian support for the Afghan mujahideen, and Soviet special forces attacks on border training camps in Iran. There was the status of a lesser Satan.
In short, this is why relations between today's Russia and Iran are not simple. On the one hand, we are not friends, but on the other, we have common interests in the struggle against the hegemon.

"1. Russo-Persian conflict (1651–1653)
The reason: a struggle for influence in the North Caucasus, where Russia relied on the fortress of Terki. Persia (the Safavid dynasty) was attempting to strengthen its position in the region.
Result: uncertain outcome, no significant territorial changes occurred.
2. The First Persian Campaign (1722–1723)
Leader: Peter I.
Objective: to strengthen the south-eastern borders of Russia, to protect trade routes for Russian merchants, to support the peoples of Transcaucasia who suffered under Persian and Turkish rule.
Result: according to the Treaty of St. Petersburg (1723), Russia received Derbent, Baku, the provinces of Gilan, Mazandaran and Astrabad (territories along the western and southern shores of the Caspian Sea).
3. The Second Persian Campaign (1796)
Reason: the invasion of Persian troops into Georgia in 1795.
Progress: Russian troops entered the Azerbaijani provinces of Persia.
Result: in December 1796, the troops were recalled by Emperor Paul I, so no significant territorial changes followed.
4. Russo-Persian War (1804–1813)
Reason: the annexation of Eastern Georgia to Russia (1801), as well as the rejection by the Russian government of the Persian ultimatum regarding the withdrawal of Russian troops from Transcaucasia.
Key events: Russian troops won a number of victories and occupied the territories of Northern Azerbaijan.
Completion: The Treaty of Gulistan (1813). Russia ceded several Transcaucasian provinces and khanates (including the Derbent Khanate). Russia received the exclusive right to maintain a navy in the Caspian Sea.
5. Russo-Persian War (1826–1828)
Reason: Persia's attempt to regain control over Eastern Transcaucasia.
Key events: the capture of Nakhichevan, Erivan (Yerevan), and Tabriz by Russian troops.
Conclusion: The Treaty of Turkmanchay (1828). The Erivan and Nakhichevan Khanates (Eastern Armenia) joined Russia. Russia's right to maintain a navy in the Caspian Sea was confirmed.
6. Russian intervention in Persia (1909–1911)
Reason: civil war in Persia after the overthrow of Mohammad Ali Shah (1909).
Objectives: to protect Russian subjects living in Persia and to ensure the security of Russian trade.
Result: Russia strengthened its influence in the northern provinces of Persia."

On Monday, Europe's Fuhrer Ursula will be outraged: And what about us?

[tralflot1832]

And in response to Iran, it will privatize the Danish Straits. Privatizing the straits is not a very good idea - Russia has no strategic straits.

[snow mountain]

In addition, states that caused damage to Iran during the recent conflict will be denied passage until reparations are paid.

Our Foreign Ministry should listen to the Persians. It would also be a good idea for us to remove reparations from Gayropa for the damage caused to us.

Thanks for the comment!

In short, Iran is losing steam. It's resorting to red lines and imitation. It won't gain anything from these concessions: they'll only give Trump the confidence to press even harder. And then, when Trump has squeezed everything out of this pressure strategy, the war will resume.

[Revolver]

All shipowners paying Iran for passage through Hormuz will be subject to US sanctions. Specifically, all vessels associated with these owners will be banned from entering US ports, as well as from conducting dollar-denominated banking transactions. So how many people will be willing to seek adventures in their sensitive areas using their own money, even in Iranian currency?
