[Iranian Senior Official States Hormuz Strait Will Reopen but Not to the U.S.] On April 1, Ibrahim Azizi, Chairman of the Iranian Parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, issued a statement to U.S. President Donald Trump, asserting that the Hormuz Strait will definitely reopen but will not be accessible to the United States. The conflict between the U.S., Israel, and Iran has persisted for over a month, severely disrupting shipping through the Hormuz Strait, leading to a surge in global shipping costs and adjustments in supply chain layouts. The Hormuz Strait plays a critical role in the global supply of oil and liquefied natural gas. On March 16, International Energy Agency (IEA) Executive Director Fatih Birol stated that the current supply losses have already exceeded those during the 1973 oil crisis.
