Iran deal allows Tehran to charge maritime service fees on Hormuz Strait transit, ministry days

The Iran peace deal signed by President Donald Trump permits Tehran to levy maritime service fees on ships passing through the Strait of Hormuz, according to Iran's foreign ministry, despite US claims that no tolls will be imposed. This discrepancy highlights the complex nature of the agreement and raises questions about enforcement and economic benefits. The Strait of Hormuz is crucial for global oil supply, and any changes in transit fees could impact international shipping and trade routes, with significant geopolitical implications.
