AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

US-Iran Peace Talks: The US and Iran are edging toward a memorandum of understanding that could turn the current ceasefire into a longer settlement, with Strait of Hormuz reopening and sanctions relief/asset releases at the center—but Iran says key clauses still need approval and final wording. Diplomacy in Oman: Oman’s Foreign Minister received a verbal message from Iran’s Abbas Araghchi, as Muscat and Tehran discussed principles for safe, sustainable freedom of navigation through Hormuz and ways to protect shipping and supply chains. Shipping Pressure: While Washington says its blockade is ongoing until an agreement is signed, officials warn the standoff has already triggered wider economic and food risks. Oman Energy Push: Nama targets 1,945 MW of wind by 2030, scaling from 50 MW today to a much larger pipeline by 2028. Food Security at Home: Dhofar’s Najd is back in focus, and turmeric localisation hit 98,447.5 kg in 2026, reinforcing Oman’s push to reduce import exposure. Local Business & Policy: Oman also moves to enforce mandatory professional licences for energy and mining workers from June 1, 2026.
