Oman, a major US defense ally in the Middle East, is negotiating with Iran over a plan to reopen the Strait of Hormuz by placing the narrow waterway, through which one-fifth of the world’s oil passes, under joint control. Trump has previously stated that Iran will not be allowed to control the waterway by charging US-backed oil tankers levies or taxes. The President issued a dire warning if Oman moves forward with its negotiations on Monday morning during a Fox News interview. He said: 'If Oman gets in the way, we'll bomb the s*** out of them.' The Strait of Hormuz has been shut since Iran closed it after US and Israeli airstrikes in late February. It remains a key sticking point in peace talks. Oman has a history of serving as a friendly mediator between the White House and the Iranian regime. The country helped broker the 2015 Iranian nuclear deal and has acted as a US defense partner in the Middle East since 1980. Trump's threats against his own ally come as the 60-day US-Iran ceasefire is set to expire today, raising fears of renewed fighting that could further destabilize the region and disrupt global oil supplies.

In May, during a Cabinet meeting, a reporter asked Trump whether he was comfortable with Oman jointly controlling the strait with Tehran. 'The strait will be open to everybody,' Trump said before being asked who would control it. 'Nobody is going to control it... We will watch over it.' Trump then turned his attention back to Oman, threatening to attack the country. 'Oman will behave just like everybody else or we'll have to blow them up. They understand that. They'll be fine,' Trump added. Oman did not publicly respond to Trump’s threat at the time. However, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the following day that Oman’s ambassador had assured him Muscat had no plans to charge vessels for passing through the strait. Iran has effectively shut down the strait by deploying suicide drones, naval mines and speedboats against US-aligned tankers to gain leverage in negotiations with Trump. The disruption has sent shockwaves through global oil markets, with crude climbing to $89 a barrel Monday morning and US gas prices reaching $4 a gallon. Iran has effectively shut down the strait by deploying suicide drones, naval mines and speedboats against US-aligned tankers to gain leverage in negotiations with Trump Since the war began, 18 US service members have been killed and hundreds more wounded over the last six months Trump has responded by imposing a naval blockade on Iranian ports in an effort to choke off the regime’s trade and force Tehran back to the negotiating table. Trump’s blockade has yet to produce a breakthrough, with the regime resisting US efforts for months to restart negotiations and accept Washington’s nuclear demands. The US is demanding that Iran halt uranium enrichment for 20 years, abandon any pursuit of a nuclear weapon and surrender its entire stockpile of enriched uranium. Iran is demanding sanctions relief, access to billions in frozen assets, an end to the US blockade, war reparations and control over the Strait of Hormuz. The fragile ceasefire broke down in July after Iran attacked commercial vessels in the strait. The US responded by launching strikes against regime radar systems and missile sites along the Persian Gulf. Iran, in turn, launched ballistic missiles and drones at US-allied Gulf states, including Kuwait, while targeting American military bases across the region.
