On the evening of the 5th local time, Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced that negotiations between Iran and Oman are progressing. The two sides have reached an agreement on the geographical coordinates related to the route of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz and are drafting a joint statement. The analysis points out that since Iran has no deep-seated animosity with countries in the region, particularly Oman, reaching a memorandum of understanding with Oman is not a difficult problem. The memorandum of understanding will ease regional tension to a certain extent and provide an opportunity and window for resolving the Middle East crisis. However, this does not mean a complete resolution of the regional crisis, nor does it mean that the relationship between Iran and the United States is easing. Iranian public opinion generally believes that it is important what kind of attitude and behavior the United States takes after reaching an understanding with Oman. If the US continues to be hostile to Iran or threatens war against Iran, the regional crisis will not be substantially mitigated. However, if the US fulfills its promises to Iraq and implements the terms of the memorandum of understanding reached under the mediation of Pakistan, then Iran and the US may have phased contacts on more differences.
