US warns Oman over Strait of Hormuz toll system

May 28, 2026, 15:48 GMT+1

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent warned Oman that Washington would “aggressively” target any actors involved in facilitating tolls for the Strait of Hormuz, saying partners supporting such a system would face penalties.

In a post on X on Thursday, Bessent said the United States would act against any companies or governments involved in efforts to impose tolls in the strategic waterway.
