Oman has presented a new draft proposal aimed at maintaining uninterrupted shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz. The proposal was made by Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi during a meeting in Muscat with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi on Saturday, according to the report. The initiative seeks to ensure smooth maritime operations in one of the world’s most strategic waterways.

According to details cited by CNN from a source familiar with the discussions, the proposal suggests managing the vital passage through two separate control systems. The arrangement is designed to keep both the northern and southern routes of the strait open for navigation. The draft agreement has not yet been finalized, and discussions are ongoing.

If implemented, the plan could help stabilize maritime movement in the region by providing structured oversight of both channels of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical route for global energy transport.
