During his recent visit to Iran, Sayyid Badr Albusaidi, Foreign Minister<\/a>, gave an interview to the Iranian news channel, where he discussed the \u201cpositive, productive, and progressive\u201d partnership between Oman and Iran. He also shared his perspective on broader regional issues.<\/p>\n

The Minister reaffirmed Oman\u2019s commitment to supporting initiatives that promote cooperation, trust, understanding and justice among all nations. He called on all parties to overcome challenges through constructive collaboration.<\/p>\n

He emphasised the importance of focusing on \u201cthe positive elements that unite us and bring regional countries closer together.\u201d<\/p>\n

He noted that his meetings with Masoud Pezeshkian President of the Islamic Republic of Iran<\/a>, and Dr Abbas Araghchi, Foreign Minister of the Islamic Republic of Iran<\/a>, had resulted in tangible progress toward shared goals.<\/p>\n

In the interview, Sayyid Badr highlighted the \u201ccapacity of the region\u2019s people to build a better future,\u201d praising the immense potential of the region to achieve security and stability.<\/p>\n

The Minister also addressed Oman and Iran\u2019s shared commitment to Palestinian justice, underscoring that the global majority supports a ceasefire, adherence to international law, and a fair resolution.<\/p>\n

He expressed his confidence that \u201cdiplomacy will prevail\u201d while acknowledging the challenges related to implementing UN Security Council<\/a> resolutions and ending the ongoing atrocities that have claimed more than 50,000 lives in Palestine and Lebanon.<\/p>\n

With regard to Syria, Sayyid Badr said: “The Syrian issue must be resolved by the Syrian people,\u201d adding that the role of external parties should be to support this process. He said that Oman follows a similar approach in addressing the situations in Palestine, Yemen, and Sudan, reasoning that external interventions often fail adequately to address legitimate demands, leading to unsustainable solutions.<\/p>\n

Despite the significant obstacles to achieving peace in the region, the Minister pointed out that recent statements from Omani and Iranian officials reflect a strong determination to engage constructively and a steadfast belief that justice will ultimately prevail.<\/p>\n
