TASS · back to the audit

WASHINGTON, August 5. /TASS/. The United States is preparing to announce temporary agreements with Iran and Oman on the issue of opening the Strait of Hormuz on Wednesday, per Axios, which cited sources.

Axios reported: "the US, Iran and Oman are closing in on an interim agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz," with the US "aiming for a Wednesday announcement."

The report assumes this concerns "a 60-day agreement" providing for ship passage through the Strait toward the Persian Gulf via Iranian territorial waters, and in the opposite direction through Omani waters in coordination with Tehran.

"The agreements do not provide for the collection of fees for the passage of ships."

"According to the portal, the agreement's effect may be extended beyond 60 days."

At the same time, "if agreements are not reached, the United States is considering the possibility of delivering large-scale strikes" on the territory of the Islamic republic.

Per administration sources cited by the portal, "the Iranian leadership completed the process of approving the agreements on Tuesday."
