Iran has allowed Malaysian ships blocked in the Persian Gulf to return home via the Strait of Hormuz. This is reported by Bloomberg, citing a statement from Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim.
“I would like to take this opportunity to thank the President of Iran for granting the right for early passage [of ships],” emphasized Anwar Ibrahim. “We are currently in the process of ensuring the safe return of Malaysian oil tankers and the people working on them.”
Amid the worsening global energy crisis, Asian countries are introducing various measures to save fuel. In particular, Malaysia has already transitioned some government employees to remote work, and the Prime Minister has called on the private sector to follow suit.
In his speech, Anwar Ibrahim also referred to the results of negotiations with regional leaders, noting that Iran has been repeatedly deceived, and now Tehran finds it 'difficult to take peaceful steps without receiving clear and legally binding security guarantees for its country.'
Malaysia traditionally adheres to a pragmatic approach in relations with Iran. Anwar Ibrahim has repeatedly acknowledged Tehran's right to defend its national sovereignty while simultaneously calling for a swift resolution to the conflict.
