A revised proposal addressing Iran’s threat to the Strait of Hormuz is poised to come before the UN Security Council for a vote today. The resolution, the result of negotiations initiated by Bahrain two weeks ago, has garnered the support of other oil-exporting Gulf nations. Initially, a more robust draft faced potential vetoes, prompting a watered-down version.
The latest draft, obtained by AFP on Monday, calls on Iran to cease its attacks on commercial vessels and refrain from any actions that could impede navigation through the Strait of Hormuz. However, unlike earlier drafts, it does not explicitly grant permission for the use of force. Instead, it urges states to collaborate on defensive measures to ensure safe passage, including escorting merchant vessels.
The draft also encourages international coordination to prevent attempts to close or obstruct navigation through the strait. It makes clear that the Council is prepared to consider additional measures against any entity that undermines freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz. The vote is scheduled for 15:00 GMT, just nine hours before US President Donald Trump’s deadline for Iran to agree to a deal or face potential military action targeting its power plants and bridges.
