Fars, a news agency affiliated with the IRGC, reacted to Donald Trump's message, the President of the United States, regarding the approach to an agreement with Iran and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, stating: "This claim is also far from reality."

Fars continued: "Contrary to Donald Trump's recent claims on the social media platform Truth Social about the Strait of Hormuz returning to its previous status and preparations for signing an agreement, investigations by Fars reporters indicate that this claim is also far from reality; as per the latest exchanged text, in the event of a potential agreement, the Strait of Hormuz will still be under Iran's management. Although Iran has agreed to allow the number of passing ships to return to pre-war levels, this does not mean free passage to the pre-war status, and the management of the Strait, determining the route, timing, manner of passage, and issuing permits will still be exclusively under the control and discretion of the Islamic Republic of Iran."

The IRGC news agency further claimed that contrary to Trump's previous conditions regarding the inclusion of the nuclear program in the agreement, "no commitments have been made by Iran, and the nuclear file has not been discussed at this stage."

Fars also claimed that "American officials in multiple messages to Iran have acknowledged that Trump's tweets are mainly for promotional purposes and media consumption within the United States and have advised that these statements should not be taken seriously."
