Interesting diplomacy shift

Fascinating to see France pivoting toward Oman. Do you think this will actually help ease tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, or is it more about economic deals?

Economic deals for sure, brother. France wants a stable Gulf to keep oil flowing. Oman can facilitate that without taking sides.

France learned from the AUKUS snub. They're diversifying allies in the Indian Ocean. Smart move, but will they stay committed?

Don't overthink it. Oman has ports, France has ships and tech. It's a commercial handshake with a diplomatic ribbon on top.

As a French Muslim, I hope this brings more cultural exchange, not just business. Oman's heritage is underrated.

Anything that keeps the strait open and calm is good for all Muslims in the region. We don't need more conflict disrupting lives.
