Qatar’s prime minister visits Tehran for talks with Iranian leaders on mediating the US‑Iran war and reopening the Strait of Hormuz under proposed Iranian‑Omani navigation framework
Question
Qatar’s prime minister visits Tehran for talks with Iranian leaders on mediating the US‑Iran war and reopening the Strait of Hormuz under proposed Iranian‑Omani navigation framework
Direct answer
Active Qatari mediation and discussion of structured navigation frameworks slightly reduce tail‑risk of a full Hormuz closure but do not remove the war premium, shaping expectations for a controlled but still risk‑laden restoration of Gulf energy flows.
