Elex Michaelson: ‘A Reminder ... the Strait Was Open at the Beginning of this War’

EXCERPT:

MICHAELSON: "And you say this is something they‘re talking about often on state TV in Iran."
REZVANI: "That‘s right. I think this negotiating team is under tremendous pressure by the hardliner camp to retain control, as much of it as possible, at any cost"
MICHAELSON: "And Ben, a reminder, of course, the Strait was open at the beginning of this war. This was not a problem before this war started."
