Mission Impossible of Omani diplomacy in the Gulf

Oman is attempting to mediate between Iran and other Gulf states over control of the Strait of Hormuz, while also trying to prevent the Huthi rebels in Yemen from entering the conflict on Iran's side. The country has held talks with Iran's foreign minister and played a key role in past peace negotiations in Yemen. However, efforts to reach a compromise have faced setbacks due to the significant differences between Iran's desire to maintain control over Hormuz and the demands of the U.S. and Arab neighbors for open access. Meanwhile, tensions have risen again between Saudi Arabia and the Huthis, with recent discussions in Muscat aimed at preventing further escalation.
