In his speech at the United Nations, Omani Foreign Minister Badr al-Busaidi affirmed that his country stands in solidarity with the Gulf states in the measures they are taking to protect their sovereignty, stressing Oman’s commitment to continuing efforts aimed at maintaining the security of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz.

The Omani Foreign Minister said that dialogue is the best way to resolve issues and crises, stressing the importance of continuing diplomatic efforts to address differences and enhance stability in the region.

He added that Oman is committed to continuing its efforts to preserve navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, which contributes to ensuring the security of the sea lanes and the stability of the region.

He explained in his speech: “At the beginning of this year, our region witnessed a war that could have been avoided, and subsequent events showed that the escalation extended to threatening the security of the countries of the region, and paralyzed the movement of navigation and trade through the vital Strait of Hormuz, which affected energy security, price stability, and confidence in the current global order.
