Oman FM Reaffirms Toll-Free Hormuz Passage as Iran Closure Remains in Effect
⚓ MUSCAT — Oman pledges toll-free Hormuz while Iran's closure order still stands. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Oman doesn't speak carelessly — Muscat is Iran's primary back-channel. A public toll-free commitment implies either Tehran coordination or a deliberate attempt to pull Iran back to the table. If Iran ignores it, Oman loses its guarantor role. If Tehran responds, it's the first de-escalation signal since Araghchi's walkout.
