Oman calls for self-restraint, dialog in Mideast conflict

Oman's foreign minister, Badr al-Busaidi, has called for restraint and dialogue among the countries involved in the Middle East conflict, urging them to settle their differences through peaceful means. Speaking at the United Nations General Assembly in New York, al-Busaidi emphasized Oman's readiness to assist in any mediation efforts aimed at reaching a consensual political solution.

He reaffirmed Oman's commitment to ensuring navigation remains unrestricted in the Strait of Hormuz, despite US President Donald Trump's rejection of an Iranian proposal for a truce that would have allowed the Strait's reopening within seven days.
