US sanctions on Iran's Strait management authority violate sovereignty and risk regional stability. | The sanction targets an Iranian institutional body responsible for managing Strait of Hormuz passage requests, undermining Iran's sovereignty and potentially disrupting regional maritime safety and trade. This action violates core principles of self-determination and non-discrimination under UDHR and UNDRIP, with significant geopolitical and humanitarian implications.
