        <description role="CCTVPLUSdescrole:Storyline" xml:lang="en">Iran is in discussions with Oman on a transit mechanism for the strategic Strait of Hormuz, the country's Foreign Ministry said on Monday, highlighting its commitment to safe passage and regional stability. 

The ministry's spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei said that the Strait of Hormuz is an internationally important shipping route, and Iran has consistently sought to ensure its safe passage. Talks with Oman on the strait's transit arrangements are ongoing. 

Baghaei emphasized that Iran holds no hostility toward any country in the Middle East, including the United Arab Emirates, and urged all parties to stay alert to external attempts to sow division in the region. 

He added that, although the United States declined to respond to Iran's proposal, indirect communication between Iran and the U.S. continues through Pakistan.
