On September 11, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Baghaei announced plans for a regional meeting involving Gulf coastal countries. This meeting represents a significant development, with hopes that it will enhance mutual understanding among regional nations and contribute to strengthening regional security. Iran, Iraq, and other Gulf coastal countries will participate in this meeting, which will take place next Monday in Oman. In addition to other regional issues, the participants will discuss the outcomes of negotiations between Iran and Oman regarding the establishment of a safe commercial shipping corridor in the Strait of Hormuz. The Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman also mentioned a previous agreement between Iran and Oman on a temporary shipping corridor in the Strait of Hormuz, emphasizing Iran's commitment to taking action to ensure the safety of shipping in the Strait. However, he stated that as long as the U.S. acts aggressively and interferes illegally, including through maritime blockades and economic warfare, the safety of shipping in the Strait of Hormuz cannot be guaranteed.
