🇮🇷🇴🇲 IRAN TO OMAN: "The Strait Is Ours to Manage – Not Washington's"
Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Gharibabadi has delivered a blunt message to Oman: Iran is the primary coastal state with authority over the Strait of Hormuz, and the war has forced Tehran to focus on this critical waterway.
🌊 "The Strait of Hormuz has no more than two coastal countries: the Islamic Republic of Iran and Oman."
⚠️ "Prior to our recent wars, we had no problems in the Strait of Hormuz."
🛡️ "After the 40‑day war, our attention was drawn to this issue."
🧠 Iran is now actively managing the strait – a shift in focus that was previously absent.
