Trump warns Oman amid tensions
U.S. President Donald Trump issued unprecedented threats toward Oman during a government meeting, warning of "blowing up" the region if it does not act appropriately. These statements come amid reports of negotiations between Iran and Oman regarding a joint fee system for the Strait of Hormuz. Hours after Trump's threat, the U.S. Treasury Department announced sanctions against the Iran-established Hormuz Strait Authority, and threatened to impose sanctions on Oman if it cooperates with Iran, even as Oman continues to play an important mediating role between Washington and Tehran.
