U.S. has sent Iran a message on Strait of Hormuz: NYT

TEHRAN, Jan. 14 (MNA) – The New York Times, citing U.S. government officials, claimed on January 12 that the Obama administration has sent a secret message to Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei warning that closing the Strait of Hormuz is a “red line” that would provoke an American response.
