Iran’s foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei says Iran and Oman are continuing talks aimed at ensuring the safe flow of traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, with discussions focused on designating safe inbound and outbound lanes, Al Jazeera reports.
In comments carried by Iran’s IRIB broadcaster, Baghaei says the talks have “been assessed positively at both the technical and political levels” as Iran works to develop the needed “mechanisms” to manage traffic in the strait.
