Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi said on Sept. 13 that a meeting scheduled for Sept. 14 in Oman will focus on a new maritime corridor inside the Strait of Hormuz. According to his remarks in an interview, Iran plans to brief participating countries on the details of an agreement reached with Oman, along with a route map for the proposed passage. Araghchi also said the agreement with Oman should not be read as a sign that the Strait of Hormuz will reopen. He tied any reopening by Iran to a separate condition: the United States must resume fulfilling the commitments it made under the "Islamabad Memorandum of Understanding." The update was carried by BlockBeats, citing China Central Television News.
