Iran uncovers Oman deal terms for Strait opening
An Iranian source revealed that Tehran has presented seven conditions to the United States for reopening the Strait of Hormuz. However, the understanding between Iran and Oman does not mean an immediate opening of the strait. The agreement between Tehran and Muscat, reached in late August, is limited to establishing new routes for entry and exit from the strait within Iranian territorial waters, with traffic management according to Iran, and the closure of the southern route that the United States had demanded to be opened. This reflects Iran's inclination to assert its sovereignty over the strait, as its final reopening depends on the behavior of the American side and the implementation of the seven conditions, which have received approval from Iran’s higher authorities. Currently, a Gulf Cooperation Council meeting is being prepared in Oman to discuss maritime security in the strait, with hints that no final agreement will be signed, but rather a framework for discussing regional issues and strategic passages.
