Iran makes demands before reaching deal with Oman on Strait of Hormuz

Iran is presenting specific demands during ongoing negotiations with Oman regarding the Strait of Hormuz. President Trump informed Axios that the U.S. is currently only semi-negotiating with Tehran. As the conflict persists, access to the Strait of Hormuz remains uncertain, leading to an increase in oil prices. Iran has explicitly stated that the U.S. must meet six demands for the waterway to reopen, while the overall diplomatic situation between the two nations remains unstable.
