Both Iran and US violating international law over Strait of Hormuz blockade, says expert
More than 20 vessels passed through the Strait of Hormuz on Saturday, the highest number since the early days of the war, as tensions persist following the US seizure of an Iranian cargo ship.Iran has left the door open to diplomacy while debating its next move.
Marc Weller, Director of the Global Governance and Security Centre at Chatham House, told Al Jazeera the US action is “inconsistent with the ceasefire” and legally doubtful.
He said the wider war itself is “unlawful”, complicating any justification for a blockade or vessel seizure.
Weller stressed all states have the right to transit the strait freely in peace and war, rejecting both Iran’s toll demands and the US blockade.
He described both sides’ actions as leverage to secure advantage in ceasefire negotiations.
Weller warned the crisis is drawing in global powers and disrupting energy flows, with third states becoming “incidental victims”.
