Can Iran’s 60-day fee waiver keep the Strait of Hormuz open and stable?
Iran has suspended transit fees for commercial vessels passing through the Strait of Hormuz for 60 days following a 14-point interim peace agreement with the United States. The deal aims to reduce regional tensions, restore maritime trade, and create a framework for talks on security, sanctions relief, and Iran's nuclear programme. Oil prices reacted immediately as tankers resumed movement through one of the world's most important energy corridors. However, uncertainty remains as questions continue over the long-term durability of the agreement.
