Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps has supported President Hassan Rouhani’s stance on the consequences of a US ploy to drive Iran’s crude exports down to zero, saying either everyone is entitled to use the strategic Strait of Hormuz or no one.
If Iran cannot sell its oil due to US pressure, then no other regional country will be allowed to do so either, Mohammad Ali Jafari was quoted as saying by Tasnim News Agency on Thursday.
“We hope this plan expressed by our president will be implemented if needed,” he said. “We will make the enemy understand that either all can use the Strait of Hormuz or no one.”
