Iran says Oman deal is in ‘final stages’ but US must open Hormuz

By GhanaSummary NewsroomSouth Africa

Iran said on Sunday that a deal with Oman defining new shipping lanes in the Strait of Hormuz was in its final stages but reiterated that the waterway would only reopen once the United States met other conditions.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said on Sunday an agreement on the strait that lies between the two countries was in the “final stages” but repeated comments made on Saturday that it would not reopen it unless other conditions were met.

It agreed a ceasefire with Iran in June, but re-imposed a blockade on Iranian shipping in the Gulf in July, which Tehran said was a violation of the truce that had already broken down.
