Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said Sunday negotiations between Iran and Oman over the management of the Strait of Hormuz are “nearing completion.”
Araghchi briefed the Cabinet on the latest status of negotiations between Tehran and Muscat, noting progress in the discussions, Iran’s state-run IRNA news agency reported.
He said the negotiations are “nearing completion and in their final stages,” without providing further details.
Separately, Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baqaei said the talks were bilateral and “do not concern any other party,” according to the semi-official Fars news agency.
“The issue of Iran and Oman holding talks to reach a mechanism that safeguards our interests is not new and has been under discussion for a long time,” he said.
