Oman has no plans to impose a toll on the Strait of Hormuz, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent told a White House press briefing today.
“I had a call with the Omani ambassador this morning and he assured me that there were no plans for tolling the Strait,” he told reporters.
“As he said, our countries have had 200 years of good relations, he wants to have another 200 more, and I told him that this was a non-starter and he did not want to risk either Omani individuals or Omani financial institutions getting sanctioned,” he added.
