Iran is proposing a plan to Oman aimed at reopening the Strait of Hormuz. This plan involves Iran asserting significant control over shipping traffic in the crucial waterway.
Iran's proposed measures include demanding full control over all vessels entering the Strait of Hormuz.
Additionally, Iran seeks oversight of all outbound shipping traffic.
The plan reportedly grants Iran the authority to intervene in maritime activities if deemed necessary.
These proposals are part of ongoing discussions with Oman regarding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.
The information was disclosed by a senior Iranian source to Reuters on Tuesday.
The Strait of Hormuz is a vital strategic waterway for global oil and gas transportation.
Iran's proposed actions suggest an intention to exert greater sovereignty and security over this critical maritime chokepoint.
The discussions with Oman are framed as a collaborative effort to ensure the waterway's accessibility.
The specific nature of potential interventions has not been detailed.
