We remain committed to fostering dialogue that supports stability and lasting cooperation in our region," he wrote on X.The meeting was to discuss a range of issues, including possible agreements on the Strait of Hormuz, a critical maritime corridor.Iran had been negotiating with Oman for months over an arrangement governing shipping through the strait. Oman controls the waterway’s opposite bank and has said the talks were supported by other Gulf Arab states.Before the United States and Israel attacked Iran on February 28, triggering the war, roughly one-fifth of global oil supplies passed through the Strait of Hormuz. Iran blockaded the strait days later, sending crude oil prices sharply higher.
