Trump signals possible Hormuz agreement as Oman mediates safe passage

U.S. President Donald Trump suggested a deal regarding the Strait of Hormuz could be finalized soon as Iranian officials conduct talks with Omani mediators on safe shipping routes.
U.S. President Donald Trump indicated that an agreement regarding the Strait of Hormuz could be reached within twenty-four to forty-eight hours, despite acknowledging that no direct talks between Washington and Tehran are currently scheduled. Iranian foreign ministry officials confirmed that ongoing discussions with Omani mediators are focusing on establishing secure maritime routes for commercial vessels. However, Tehran maintained that the strategic waterway will remain restricted until U.S. foreign policy shifts. Concurrently, Trump issued warnings against external interference, threatening military actions against third parties if diplomatic efforts disrupt American plans, while insisting Iranian maritime access depends on full compliance or surrender.
