Iran’s foreign ministry says the United States is not involved in recent talks with Oman over the administration of the strategic Strait of Hormuz.
“These talks have no connection with the United States. They are a bilateral matter between Iran and Oman, and they are continuing,” the ministry’s spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei says in a weekly press briefing, adding that the waterway “remains closed.”
