Iran warns foreign intervention in Strait of Hormuz would destabilize region

Iran has declared it is capable of maintaining order in the Strait of Hormuz without outside assistance. Tehran warned that foreign intervention in the strategic waterway would complicate rather than resolve regional issues.
