Oman Proposes Joint Hormuz Management Plan

The proposal, modeled on Asia’s Strait of Malacca, would see Iran and Oman jointly manage the strait.

Iran has said it wants to collect service fees from ships, but the plan ensures no single country controls the waterway.

Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states have expressed support for the Omani initiative.

The diplomatic effort comes amid ongoing US-Iran tensions and threats to shipping in the region.
