Netanyahu dials PM Modi, discusses developments in West Asia
The leaders reaffirmed plans to expand cooperation while discussing regional tensions that threaten a waterway carrying nearly one-fifth of global oil and gas shipments.
- On Thursday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi received a call from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to review the India-Israel Special Strategic Partnership and discuss regional developments in West Asia.
- The conflict in West Asia has continued for more than five months without a lasting solution, prompting Modi and Netanyahu to reaffirm their commitment to strengthening bilateral cooperation.
- Separately, Iran is finalizing a draft agreement with Oman regarding the Strait of Hormuz, with foreign ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei stating coordinate details are in final review, "if certain third parties do not obstruct the process."
- The United States maintains that an agreement to reopen the Strait is "imminent," though officials argue Iran charging service fees contradicts the requirement that the waterway remain free for all vessels.
- Regional officials noted the deal requires approval from Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who has not been seen in public. The Strait of Hormuz remains critical for global energy supplies.
