Given the recent war and its disastrous consequences that have altered the current situation in the Strait, the two foreign ministers discussed a phased framework that can provide a practical and implementable foundation for moving the situation forward. The proposed framework includes establishing a temporary joint maritime passage through the Strait of Hormuz and agreeing to implement a joint mine-clearing project. Both sides will continue technical discussions with the aim of reaching an agreement on establishing a permanent maritime passage, future management of the Strait, and mechanisms for exchanging traffic management information and providing related maritime and security services. In this regard, both sides emphasized the need for joint dialogue with the littoral states of the Persian Gulf. They also stressed the necessity of adhering to applicable international law and respecting the sovereign rights of the littoral states."
