Iran and Oman are collaborating on the establishment of a temporary maritime route through the Strait of Hormuz, according to Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. Araghchi clarified that these discussions are distinct from any decision on reopening the strategic waterway. He explained that the previously functional routes are no longer viable, necessitating the creation of a new path.
