I welcome the understanding reached between the United States and Iran on ending the conflict in West Asia, which has caused serious economic disruption across the world and led to loss of life in many countries.
India hopes that the implementation of this understanding will help restore peace and stability in the region and ensure the freedom of navigation and commerce.
We look forward to deliberations on the remaining issues reaching a sustainable final agreement.

Oman has no objection to international commercial vessels navigating through the Iranian side of the Strait of Hormuz. However, if geopolitical or security circumstances require vessels to alter course and transit through Oman’s territorial waters, Oman has a sovereign responsibility to ensure that such passage is safe, orderly, and environmentally responsible. This includes preventing harm to Oman’s marine ecosystem, avoiding disruption to local shipping routes, and protecting the livelihoods of fishing communities.
Under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, coastal states may regulate passage in their territorial waters for reasons related to safety, environmental protection, and maritime order. They may also impose charges for specific services rendered to passing vessels, provided such charges are applied transparently and without discrimination. In the Strait of Hormuz, these conditions are especially significant because of the volume of traffic, the sensitivity of the marine environment, and the strategic importance of the waterway.
To provide safe passage and related maritime services, Oman would need to invest in port and coastal infrastructure, surveillance systems, navigational support, emergency response capacity, and the recruitment and training of hundreds of personnel. Oman is prepared to support the United States in this regard, particularly within the framework of the U.S.–Oman Free Trade Agreement. Other states may also seek similar arrangements with Oman through bilateral agreements.
Happy to have met President Nikos Christodoulides in Delhi. We held extensive deliberations on further strengthening the India-Cyprus friendship. Considering the close ties between our nations, we have decided to elevate our friendship into a Strategic Partnership. Ours is indeed a strong and futuristic partnership rooted in shared values. The growing investment linkages between our nations are a matter of immense joy and we hope to increase trade and economic ties in the times to come.

A short while ago, I was conferred with the ‘Royal Order of the Polar Star, Degree Commander Grand Cross.’ This is not just an honour for me, but for the 140 crore people of India. It’s equally a tribute to all our friends in Sweden who have enriched India-Sweden relations and given them a strong foundation. May the friendship between our nations continue to grow.
