Iran and Oman have concluded their talks on the Strait of Hormuz without reaching a breakthrough. Both countries have decided to continue the talks at both the political and technical levels “to reach a mutual understanding on ensuring the safety of shipping” in the strait, according to a statement from the Iranian Foreign Ministry.
According to reports from Tehran, a delegation from the Gulf state of Qatar also participated in the talks in the Omani capital, Muscat. According to the reports, Qatar acted as a mediator between Iran and the United States.
