Bangladeshi ship denied passage through Hormuz despite reaching strait

After being stranded in the Persian Gulf for nearly 40 days due to the Iran war, the ship left the outer anchorage of the Saudi port of Dammam on Wednesday morning following the ceasefire.

However it was denied permission when it contacted Iranian authorities after reaching near the strait on Thursday night, BSC Managing Director Commodore Mahmudul Malek said.

He said the ship is now stationed at an anchorage roughly 20 nautical miles from the Strait of Hormuz, awaiting clearance and hoping for an early passage.

Not sure if it's directly related to this, but Iran did express disappointment with Bangladesh not directly condemning the US for its attacks on Iran.

The post-BAL interim government and the newly elected BNP have both set the country on a more pro-US path; sad to see.

Tehran expresses disappointment over Dhaka’s stance

The envoy said Iran maintains a principled position to allow Bangladesh’s fuel-carrying ships through the strategic waterway.

“Bangladesh has expressed concerns, but we would have been happy to see Bangladesh condemning the aggression on Iran,” he said.

He added that attacking a sovereign country violates the UN Charter and alleged that the US and Israel had breached international law.

He said Iran considered Bangladesh as a friend and thus expects more.

Realistically, can the US actually reindustrialise? Or are the tariffs just to extract more money from workers? That can't be sustainable...

Genuinely what is their plan here?

Oof
