Rezaei, the secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, made a statement on August 11 in which he accused the United States of being the source of insecurity in the Persian Gulf, the Strait of Hormuz, and the Gulf of Oman. He asserted that Washington had put the whole region at risk by forcing an illegal war on Iran. According to Rezaei, the Strait of Hormuz will not be reopened as long as the US fails to change its behavior and accept Iran's conditions. He called on the United States to end the war and to pay the frozen Iranian funds. He further declared that all regional wars, including those in Lebanon and Gaza, must be ended, and that Washington must fulfill additional conditions that were transmitted to the US through intermediaries. On the matter of transit passage through the Strait of Hormuz, Rezaei stated that if Iran and Oman reach an agreement on the transit corridor, that agreement will be dealt with separately from the issue of the blockade.
