AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Strait of Hormuz Diplomacy: Iran’s Deputy FM Kazem Gharibabadi rejected Donald Trump’s claim that the strait will soon become US territory, insisting it “will remain Iranian,” while Iran’s FM Abbas Araghchi said talks with Oman on shipping routes are a separate, technical track from any reopening decision. Oman-Iran Shipping Map: Tehran and Muscat say they’ve agreed on a shipping route map after weeks of technical negotiations, with a formal statement still pending and further progress tied to US commitments under the June MoU. Regional Shipping Pressure: UAE blamed Iran for an ADNOC vessel attack in the strait; shipping remains heavily disrupted as attacks continue and traffic stays far below normal. Oman Governance & Services: Sanad Service Centres processed 400,000+ transactions in H1 2026, expanding to 922 authorised centres and creating 2,200+ jobs. Consumer Protection: Oman’s CPA reported multiple enforcement actions, including closures, fines, and vehicle recalls (Kia and BMW). Economy & Energy: OQEP posted 19.4% H1 2026 net profit growth to OMR199.0m, supported by higher sales volumes and prices. Tourism & Society: Shaat Overlook in Dhofar unveiled a glass sky deck; HR forum in Salalah focused on “People First.”
