Oman calls for self-restraint, dialog in Mideast conflict

Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi called at the UN Saturday for “self-restraint” from all sides in the Middle East war, while stressing that Muscat was ready to mediate.

Earlier on Saturday, President Donald Trump rejected a truce deal proposed by Iran that Tehran said could have reopened the Strait of Hormuz to shipping within a week.

The waterway is key to the world’s energy supply and is now central to the conflict between the US and Iran, which is at a stalemate after nearly seven months.
