针对霍尔木兹海峡危机的最新进展，韩国外交部长赵兑烈于4月15日表示，韩国没有计划向伊朗支付通行费以解救其26艘滞留船只及173名船员，此举符合以美国为首的封锁政策。相关船只数据已与伊朗、美国及海湾国家共享，并考量了华盛顿与德黑兰之间最近达成的为期两周的停火协议。
外交部长赵兑烈在4月15日回应议员质询时表示：“现阶段，我们没有计划向伊朗支付任何形式的赔偿，也不会采取任何违背美国立场的行动。”
受美伊战争影响，霍尔木兹海峡持续被封锁，自2月底袭击事件以来，已有26艘韩国船只和173名船员受困。基于此前的外交努力，首尔不仅与伊朗共享了船只和船员信息，还与美国及海湾合作委员会（GCC）成员国共享了相关数据，以寻求各方对船只及人员安全的配合。
韩国总统府周二证实了数据共享一事。赵兑烈补充称：“我们已请求他们（就船员安全）提供配合。”他指出，该决定综合考量了近期达成的两周停火协议，以便采取临时措施并为船只获释创造潜在的谈判空间。
这表明韩国在当前危机中支持以美国为首的封锁政策，同时也致力于维护本国船员的福祉。
