DUBAI - Iran's proposal to ​end ​war with the U.S. and reopen the Strait of Hormuz was legitimate and generous, Foreign ⁠Ministry Spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei ⁠said on Monday, adding that the U.S. continues to ‌uphold unreasonable and ​one-sided demands.
'Our ⁠demand is ​legitimate: demanding an end ‌to the war, lifting ​the (U.S.) blockade and piracy, and releasing Iranian assets that have been unjustly frozen in ‌banks due to ​U.S. pressure,' Baghaei said.
'Safe passage ​through ‌the ⁠Strait of Hormuz and establishing security in ​the region and ⁠Lebanon were ​other demands of Iran, which are considered a generous and responsible ​offer for regional security.'
