Vance says Iran has no current plan to charge transit fees in the Strait of Hormuz

U.S. Vice President JD Vance said in a Fox News interview on Aug. 9 that Iran has told the United States it does not currently plan to impose transit fees on vessels passing through the Strait of Hormuz. Vance said some people within Iran’s system do talk about charging such fees, but added that Tehran had informed Washington that there is no plan in place at this stage. He also said the broader Gulf alliance wants the same outcome. Vance stressed that the U.S. would not take those statements at face value and would instead verify them through actions rather than rhetoric. His remarks framed the issue as one the administration is watching closely, with the focus on whether Iran’s conduct matches what it has communicated to the U.S.

U.S. Senate Passes Stopgap Funding Bill to Avert Government Shutdown

On Saturday, August 8, the U.S. Senate passed a stopgap funding measure to keep federal agencies funded through December 11, aiming to head off a government shutdown in the weeks before the November midterm elections. Fox News reports the vote was 90-6 in favor, with Sen. Darlene Graham (R-SC) abstaining. The measure does not fully eliminate the risk of a shutdown — October 1, the start of the new fiscal year, remains a key date — and the House, currently in recess, still needs to reach an agreement on the bill once it returns.

US Treasury Removes Some Iran Sanctions, Drops Baghdad Airline From Terror List

According to ChainCatcher, citing a Fox News report, the U.S. Treasury Department has removed some Iran-related sanctions from its website. A Treasury official said the removal does not represent any change in Washington's policy toward the Iranian government, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Quds Force, any designated terrorist organization, or its supporters and agents. The official described the move as part of normal administrative procedures, taken after a review of the specific circumstances surrounding the airline Fly Baghdad. Earlier, the Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) published an update on its official website revoking counterterrorism designations, lifting some Iran-related sanctions, including the removal of Fly Baghdad from the sanctions list. Fly Baghdad had previously been added to the U.S. counterterrorism sanctions list because of its ties to Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Quds Force. The development was first reported by Fox News, and the information was relayed by ChainCatcher in a flash news update.

Rubio says U.S. strikes made Iran more willing to negotiate on nuclear program and Strait issues

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio said in an interview with Fox News that Iran is now more willing to negotiate on issues including its nuclear program and the Strait of Hormuz after Washington’s military strikes. Rubio said the U.S. attacks destroyed Iran’s navy, air force, missile defense systems, launchers, and weapons production facilities, and had "severely degraded" the country’s defensive capabilities. At the same time, he said Iran still has missiles and drones and remains capable of causing damage. Rubio also argued that Iran no longer has the conventional shield it had intended to rely on, and said that shift is the only reason Tehran is now willing — and in some cases appears eager — to reach agreements on denuclearization and Strait-related matters. The remarks were cited by Odaily, which attributed the report to Jin10.
