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, Al Jazeera reports quoting the Japanese leader.
Speaking to reporters after the call, Takaichi says she also strongly demanded that the Strait of Hormuz be reopened soon to secure free and safe navigation for ships from Asia and all other nations.
She has not elaborated on Pezeshkian’s response, but notes that the two leaders pledged to maintain closer communication.
