Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi held separate telephone discussions with his Saudi Arabian and Omani counterparts on Monday evening to discuss the security of the Strait of Hormuz, according to a statement released on his official Telegram channel on Tuesday.
The discussions focused on the latest bilateral and regional developments, with Araqchi stressing the importance of strengthening cooperation and enhancing joint diplomatic efforts to promote stability across the region.
According to the statement, the Iranian foreign minister emphasized that continued dialogue and coordination among regional countries are essential to maintaining peace and addressing shared security concerns.
Araqchi's conversation with Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan came shortly after Saudi Arabia announced that it had intercepted and shot down drones allegedly launched toward the kingdom by Iran-affiliated groups operating in Iraq.
The Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's most strategically important maritime routes for global oil shipments, has remained under close international attention amid ongoing regional tensions.
The latest diplomatic contacts highlight continued efforts by regional powers to manage security concerns and maintain stability through dialogue.
