PM Al-Sudani to visit Oman for high-level talks

Shafaq News/ Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani is planning to visit Oman soon in response to an official invitation from Sultan Haitham bin Tariq, a government source revealed on Sunday.

The source told Shafaq News that the visit to Muscat aims to strengthen bilateral ties and address key regional issues, including tensions over US-Israeli threats to strike Iran, and developments in Gaza and Syria.

“Omani Foreign Minister Badr bin Hamad Al-Busaidi delivered earlier the official invitation to Al-Sudani,” the source added.
