[Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson: U.S. Seeking Help from Russia Indicates Crisis is Ongoing] BlockBeats News, October 12, according to Iran's Tasnim News Agency, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Bagheri stated that it is the right of every country to make decisions based on national interests and welfare. Iran also bases its decisions on its own priorities and interests when addressing various issues. The related topic is a matter between Russia and the United States. However, regarding the situation in the Strait of Hormuz, one point is worth pondering: if the issue in question has indeed been resolved as claimed by the U.S., then there would be no need for the U.S. to seek help from Russia to address its own challenges. The U.S. request for assistance is itself clear evidence that the issue is still ongoing.
