Iran (IMNA) - Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Esmail Baghaei said the negotiations between the two countries are centered on determining secure inbound and outbound transit routes for vessels navigating the strategic waterway.
Speaking to state television, Baghaei said the talks have been held at both technical and political levels and are advancing in a constructive atmosphere.
“Iran, in cooperation with Oman, is working to formulate the necessary mechanisms for future arrangements for managing shipping transit in this strategic passage,” he said, adding that the final results will be announced once the negotiations are concluded.
The Strait of Hormuz remains closed to shipping under Iranian control, with Tehran maintaining that the waterway will remain closed until U.S. military interference in the strategic passage comes to an end.
