L’Iran annonce 5 « pays amis » autorisés à utiliser le détroit d’Ormuz

Iran’s announcement of a “friendly nations” list for safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz marks a bold escalation in its use of maritime control as a geopolitical tool. With 20% of global oil and LNG flowing through this narrow waterway, Tehran’s selective access policy isn’t just regional posturing—it’s a direct challenge to international norms and energy markets.
 The “Friendly Five” (Plus One?)
According to Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, these nations are granted safe passage—subject to coordination with Iran’s Revolutionary Guard:
China – Deepening strategic partnership (oil deals, Belt and Road)
Russia – Military/economic alliance amid Western sanctions
