Almost three dozen countries are gathering to discuss reopening the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial shipping route blocked since 2019, in an effort to exert diplomatic and political pressure on Iran to lift its maritime blockade. The meeting is aimed at finding solutions to the crisis that has severely impacted global oil supplies and trade. Representatives from over 30 countries will attend the meeting, which will focus on the economic and security implications of the blockade. The gathering comes as tensions between the US and Iran remain high following a drone strike on an Iranian military base in Syria.
