According to Jin10, Iranian Parliament Presiding Board spokesperson Goudarzi said in an interview with Iran's Mehr News Agency that the Strait of Hormuz had changed the war's dynamics and that the United States had no choice but to respect the will of the Iranian people, withdraw from the region, and abandon excessive demands. He said threats, pressure, and posturing could not deprive the Iranian people of their rights or impose the U.S. will on them. He added that the war could not be considered truly over if people's rights continued to be ignored and power politics persisted. He said the key was to recognize the rights of the Iranian people and respect the wishes of people across the region.
