Ali Akbar Velayati, an adviser to the former Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic, said in a post on X that the era of imposing security “from across the oceans” was over and warned that “any mischief will trigger a chain reaction.”
He said security in Hormuz and Malacca was now guaranteed “under the shadow of our power and that of our strategic partners,” and added that security in the Bab al-Mandab was in the hands of “our Ansarallah brothers,” referring to Yemen’s Houthis.
Velayati also took aim at Britain and France, saying that if they were concerned about shipping security, they should “think about the English Channel and the old wound of Gibraltar.” He added: “We appreciate Madrid’s independent and wise positions.”
