U.S. President Donald Trump said Washington would strike Oman if the country obstructs U.S. actions in the conflict with Iran in the Strait of Hormuz. He made the remarks in an interview with Fox News journalist Trey Yingst.
"If Oman gets in our way, we'll bomb the hell out of them," the American president said.
Trump made the statement on the eve of the expiration of the ceasefire agreement between the U.S. and Iran. Last week, Iran said it was holding talks with Oman on resuming operations in the Strait of Hormuz.
