    Tehran agrees to engage Gulf states over Hormuz future

    India

    • Oman-hosted talks set for Monday as Tehran weighs service fees system • Trump says he has no regrets over war despite domestic pressure • Pezeshkian warns Western pressure has pushed Iran into a ‘critical’ phase TEHRAN: Iran on Friday announced talks with Gulf states in Oman scheduled for Monday over the future of the blockaded Strait of Hormuz, even as US President Donald Trump insisted he had no regrets about a war that has become a growing liability for Republicans ahead of November’s midterms. Tehran’s foreign ministry said it would meet Gulf states, including Iraq, in Oman on Monday to discuss the waterway, which Iran has controlled since its war with the US and Israel began. The ministry described the gathering as an effort “to promote better understanding among the countries of the region and help strengthen shared regional security.” The talks build on weeks of diplomacy between Tehran and Muscat over how the strait should be managed going forward. Before the war, the waterway facilitated roughly a fifth of the world’s oil supplies, moving freely between the Gulf and international markets. Vessels now require Iranian permission to transit, and Tehran is weighing a system of service fees. Ships that defy the restrictions have been struck by Iranian forces, while the US has periodically bombed Iran’s coastline to challenge its control of the strait. More than six months into the conflict, the standoff continues to ripple through global energy markets. Crude prices climbed well above $100 a barrel this week, driven by the continued disruption to Gulf shipping and fears of further escalation around the strait. That economic strain has become an uncomfortable backdrop for Republicans ahead of the midterms, yet it has done little to soften Trump’s stance on the war he ordered. Asked by Fox News’s Laura Ingraham, in an interview broadcast on Thursday, whether he regretted launching the conflict given its political cost, the president was unequivocal. “I don’t believe in the word ‘regret,’” he said. “You can always question yourself a little bit.” Pressed further, he added: “If I had it to do again, I would do exactly as I did.” Trump also waved away suggestions that his base had soured on the war. “I don’t think they’re demoralised,” he said. “I think they’re very proud of the fact that I’m not letting Iran have a nuclear weapon.” Trump has repeatedly predicted the war will end “right after the election,” alleging without evidence that Tehran has been trying to influence the US midterms. The diplomatic overtures in Oman coincided with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian’s first official visit to India, where he is attending the BRICS summit and preparing for bilateral talks with Narendra Modi. Speaking in New Delhi on Friday, Pezeshkian struck a grave tone, warning that Western economic and military pressure on Iran had reached “a critical and dangerous stage” in recent months. “The world today is going through a period of unprecedented complexity,” he said, arguing economic coercion only deepens crises rather than resolving them. “Iran has been subjected to heavy sanctions in recent years; this pressure has reached a critical and dangerous stage in recent months following the military aggression by the United States and Israel,” he said, framing the war as part of a longer pattern of pressure on the Islamic republic. “When a country is subjected to political and military pressure on its trade, energy, infrastructure and financial system, the repercussions extend beyond its borders,” he added.

    Bahrain won’t attend Iran-Gulf negotiations on Hormuz

    India

    • Manama refuses any talks with Tehran until diplomatic ties restored • Senior Iranian official signals no deal will be signed at tomorrow’s meeting • Pezeshkian says region doesn’t need US as ‘policeman’ MANAMA: Bahrain will not attend Monday’s meeting between Iran and Gulf states in Oman over the blockaded Strait of Hormuz, adding uncertainty to talks that a senior Iranian official has already said are unlikely to result in a signed agreement. Bahrain’s foreign ministry said on Saturday that it would not take part in any collective meeting involving Iran before diplomatic relations between the two countries are restored. Bahrain severed diplomatic ties with Iran in 2016, in step with Saudi Arabia. While Riyadh restored relations in 2023, Manama has yet to follow suit. Citing attacks on infrastructure across the Gulf, the ministry said regional security and stability “cannot be preserved through a policy of appeasement”, and called for the strait to remain open without “discrimination, fees or permits”. Meanwhile, a senior Iranian official has cautioned that Monday’s talks will be a chance to discuss issues including the Strait of Hormuz but is not expected to yield a signed agreement. Iran has spent months negotiating with Oman, whose territorial waters also cover part of the strait, over a deal to govern shipping through the waterway. Oman has said its talks are backed by other Gulf Arab states. Iranian officials have said Tehran wants any agreement to recognise its ability to impose fees on vessels using the passage, a demand Oman has rejected. Iran has sought to formalise control over the waterway and has enforced a blockade throughout the war in the Middle East, which be­­gan when the US and Israel atta­cked the country in late February. Before the conflict, roughly a fifth of the world’s oil supplies passed through the strait unimpeded. Meanwhile, Iran’s president, Masoud Pezeshkian, held a string of high-level meetings on the sidelines of the Brics summit in New Delhi, including the first contact between Tehran and Abu Dhabi since the war in the Middle East began. Pezeshkian met the crown prince of Abu Dhabi, Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, on Saturday. Iran’s embassy in India posted a photograph of the Pezeshkian-Al Nahyan meeting on social media. The two leaders discussed regional and international issues, de-escalation, stability and efforts to advance regional peace and development, Abu Dhabi’s media office said on X. Also on the sidelines of the summit, Pezeshkian told Malaysia’s prime minister, Anwar Ibrahim, that the Middle East did not need the United States to act as a “regional policeman”. “We do not need a regional policeman,” he said, according to the Iranian presidency. “The territorial integrity and security of the region can only be guaran-teed by its main players and the countries that comprise it,” he added.
