Nahost: Warten auf Vereinbarung zu Straße von Hormus
Eine neue Regelung zur Straße von Hormus könnte ein Schritt Richtung Normalisierung im Iran-Krieg sein. Laut Teheran steht eine Einigung bevor. In den USA sorgen Berichte zu Waffenbeständen für Ärger.
Iran and Oman are reportedly close to agreeing on the passage through the Strait of Hormuz, according to state-run Iranian news agency Irna. The agreement could lift US reports of weapon shortages and allow ships to pass unhindered through the strategic waterway. However, the US has denied any involvement in the negotiations between the two Gulf nations, which border the Strait of Hormuz.
The agreement is reportedly close to being finalized, with an unnamed US official suggesting a 50/50 chance of success before the end of February. The US President, Donald Trump, has threatened to release information about weapon shortages if reports of the agreement are leaked. The security situation is believed to be influenced by US behavior, with the possibility of a war with Iran ending by the end of February.
Iran's foreign ministry spokesperson, Ismail Baghai, stated that the agreement alone would not guarantee safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz, as ongoing US sanctions and other aggressive actions against Iran also play a role.
