US President Donald Trump has threatened possible military action against Oman while speaking about ongoing negotiations linked to the Strait of Hormuz and tensions involving Iran.Speaking during a Cabinet meeting, Trump said, “Oman will behave just like everybody else or we’ll have to blow them up,” according to international media reports.

The remarks came as the US administration continued discussions aimed at ensuring free navigation through the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most critical oil shipping routes.Trump reportedly stressed that no country should be allowed to control the strategic waterway.Despite the strong comments, there has been no indication from Washington of imminent military action against Oman, which has long been considered a key US ally and mediator in Middle East diplomacy.Oman has often played a central role in facilitating indirect talks between the United States and Iran.Trump’s remarks have nevertheless drawn global attention due to their unusually aggressive tone toward a long-standing regional partner.
