Washington, DC – US Senator Lindsey Graham called for stricter international control of the Strait of Hormuz, emphasizing the importance of continuing the policy of sanctions and economic pressure on Iran to curb its regional activities.

Graham explained that controlling one of the world’s most important waterways could be an effective tool for deterring Tehran. He also asserted that increased economic and political pressure could compel Iran to change its behavior in the region.
