Overview

Talks involving Iran, Oman and Gulf states on the Strait of Hormuz have been postponed, reportedly at the request of regional countries and in the interests of consensus. The delay comes amid intensified Yemen-related tensions and Saudi concerns over Iran’s relationship with the Houthis, leaving efforts toward a regional arrangement on the waterway stalled.
