Iran should demonstrate “maximum flexibility” to seize the opportunity to reach an agreement with the US, Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi told Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian in a phone call.
The Kyodo News Agency quoted the Japanese prime minister as saying at a press briefing that she also strongly demanded that the Strait of Hormuz be reopened soon to ensure free and safe navigation for ships from Asia and all other nations.
She did not elaborate on Pezeshkian’s response but noted that the two leaders pledged to maintain closer communication.
