Oman’s Sultan Haitham bin Tariq will embark on a two-day visit to Iran this week, Omani state media says.

The visit which will kick off on Sunday follows a Chinese-brokered rapprochement deal between Saudi Arabia and Iran announced in March.

“Sultan Haitham bin Tariq will go on an official two-day visit to Iran… in response to an invitation from the Iranian president,” the official Oman News Agency says. “The visit will also touch on means of promoting cooperation between Oman and Iran in different spheres.”

The visit comes a year after Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi visited Muscat — a trip that saw the two countries sign a string of trade deals.
