US President Donald Trump threatened today to attack Oman if it interferes with US efforts in the Strait of Hormuz, as the conflict with Iran continues and a two-month window for peace talks expires without a clear path to end the war.
Trump’s comments come as the 60-day window for peace talks between the US and Iran, agreed to in June, closed Monday without any concrete plans announced for the war to end. Meanwhile, Iran said Monday that its talks with Oman regarding the Strait of Hormuz are complex but continuing.
CNN's Betsy Klein reports from the White House and former George W. Bush aide Michael Allen, CNN political and national security analyst David Sanger and former US Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland break down Trump's harsh rhetoric on Oman.
