Bessent says Oman has ‘no plans’ to impose Hormuz tolls

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says Oman’s ambassador to Washington, Talal Alrahbi, assured him the Gulf state has “no plans for tolling the strait”.

Bessent told reporters at the White House that he spoke with the envoy earlier on Thursday.

His comments came a day after President Donald Trump warned Oman against entering any agreement with Iran to share control of the Strait of Hormuz, saying that the US would “have to blow them up” and that it had to behave.

Bessent sought to soften Trump’s remarks, saying: “I think the president wanted to punctuate freedom of navigation in the strait.”
