According to the statement, the actions included, inter alia, diluting the importance of the Strait of Hormuz to Iran's national security, undermining the influence of the Front de résistance (FRPI), tightening the blockade on the Iranian sea, and exacerbating domestic contradictions, economic slants and social discontent in Iran to weaken its internal cohesion.
