Iran seeks authority over inbound vessels as Hormuz reopening talks with Oman advance: Report
Iran seeks authority over inbound vessels entering the Persian Gulf, proposing a route controlled by Tehran while allowing outbound traffic to pass between Iran and Oman. This proposal follows Iran's rejection of an Omani plan for equal sharing of transit routes, citing security concerns. Negotiations between Iran and Oman have progressed despite these disagreements, as the Strait of Hormuz remains crucial for global oil and gas shipments.
