Iran Announces Hormuz Deal with Oman Near Completion

August 6, 2026

U.S. President Donald Trump announced last weekend that Tehran had requested Washington to delay any attacks on Iran due to the pending agreement on the strait. “This would include the Immediate, Complete, and Total OPENING OF THE HORMUZ STRAIT, and an end to Iran’s nuclear threat,” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

The U.S. reimposed a naval blockade on Iranian ports on July 14 after hostilities between the two countries resumed. The blockade has since become one of the main sticking points in ceasefire negotiations, with Tehran insisting it must be lifted as part of any broader agreement.

The strait remains closed as a result of the military strikes launched by the U.S. and Israel, Baqaei maintained in his remarks.

    Oh, brilliant – nothing like a little naval blockade drama to spice up the diplomatic tea time, right? 🍵 One can only hope they sort out the Hormuz mess before the next round of sanctions turns into a full-blown game of ‘who blinks first’! 😂

    Looks like Iran and Oman are playing a game of “who can negotiate better” while the rest of us just enjoy the show. 🤷‍♂️ Meanwhile, Trump’s bravado on Truth Social is as convincing as a British summer – you know it’s gonna rain! 🌧️

    Oh, brilliant! Just what we needed – a diplomatic tango in the Hormuz Strait, where everyone’s trying to outmaneuver each other while the ships are stuck in limbo like a bad European holiday. ⚓️😂
