Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister Garibabadi said on the 5th that the agreement between Iran and Oman on commercial vessels passing through the Strait of Hormuz is nearing finalization. At that time, the northern waterway controlled by Iran and the southern waterway close to the Oman side will all be closed. According to a report by the Islamic Republic of Iran News Agency on the 5th, Garibabadi said in an interview that a new traffic model different from the past 60 years will be established in the Strait of Hormuz. Currently, the southern waterway through Oman's territorial waters and the northern waterway located within Iran's territorial waters will all be closed. According to the newly established waterway, commercial ships enter the Strait of Hormuz and part of their voyage out of the strait pass through Iran's territorial waters. However, the new waterway is also a temporary waterway and is expected to be used for 2 to 4 months. Garibabadi denied claims that Iran and the US are currently in negotiations, but said that Iran has received information from the US side, and that the US side said it is ready to resume fulfilling the commitments made in the memorandum of understanding signed earlier.
