Iran and Oman have held talks to ensure the smooth flow of transit through the Strait of Hormuz, which has been disrupted due to the ongoing regional conflict. The two sides discussed possible options to ensure safe passage through the strait, with experts presenting several proposals and ideas to be studied further.
Iran and Oman have opened direct talks to address the growing crisis in the Strait of Hormuz. The meeting took place on April 4, with deputy foreign ministers and specialists from both countries in attendance. The focus was on finding workable options to ensure vessels can move safely through the strait. Iran has allowed selective transit in recent days, but the broader flow of vessels remains heavily constrained. Thousands of ships are still waiting for clearance. The Strait of Hormuz is a vital link between Gulf producers and markets in Europe and Asia, making any disruption immediately felt worldwide.
