Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Cooper Calls For Toll Free Reopening Of Strait Of Hormuz
Caption: Cooper Calls For Toll Free Reopening Of Strait Of Hormuz. Yvette Cooper is calling for the Strait of Hormuz to fully reopen without tolls, warning disruption is hitting economies worldwide. In a major speech, she will say no country should charge ships to pass through a key international waterway, amid reports vessels may have to pay Iran for safe passage. The warning comes as tensions remain despite a ceasefire between the US and Iran. Keir Starmer is in the Gulf meeting leaders, including Mohammed bin Salman, to push for stability. Cooper will also urge Lebanon’s inclusion in ceasefire talks and stress the need to avoid further conflict. She will warn the disruption is already driving up food and fuel prices in the UK, despite the region being thousands of miles away. Her message is clear: the route must remain open and accessible, with no country allowed to block or control international shipping lanes.
