US Energy Secretary Chris Wright says oil and oil products flowing through the Strait of Hormuz have increased to an average of 10 million barrels per day.⁣
⁣
Wright said the figure would rise further in the coming week, as the United States says efforts to disrupt shipping through the strategic waterway have been reduced.⁣
⁣
He also defended Washington’s decision to deny a sanctions waiver to Iran’s nuclear chief, who was seeking to attend the International Atomic Energy Agency’s general conference.⁣
⁣
Wright said the official was subject to US sanctions and accused Iran of trying to evade them.⁣
⁣
He urged Tehran to make a choice, saying Iran had “not many cards” left as the US continues to apply pressure.⁣
