UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and the International Maritime Organization (IMO) called for free navigation following US President Donald Trump's demand for a 20 percent transit fee on all cargo passing through the Strait of Hormuz. The IMO emphasized that there is no legal basis for charging transit fees in straits in international waters.
Trump declared the US the new "guardian" of the strait, stating that the US must be compensated for providing security in the region. It was announced that America will restart its maritime blockade against Iran starting at 20:00 GMT on 14 July.
The Strait of Hormuz normally hosts about 20 percent of the world's seaborne crude oil trade. There are concerns that the ongoing crisis could collapse the ceasefire agreement and push the price of Brent crude above 82 dollars per barrel.
