For decades, the Sultanate of Oman remains committed to adopting balanced attitudes towards pressing issues. Leveraging its extensive diplomatic experience, Oman actively pursues mediation and dialogue to contribute to global peace efforts and reduce tensions.
Under the leadership of His Majesty Sultan Haitham bin Tarik, the Sultanate of Oman has always emphasised peaceful solutions as essential tools for conflict resolution, aiming to contribute to the broader international community's efforts to create a safer world for all.
His Majesty stressed that the international community must assume its responsibilities towards the Palestinian people, calling on it to exert efforts towards the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with East Jerusalem as its capital.
“We are following with sorrow the developments in occupied Palestine,” His Majesty said while presiding over the first annual meeting of the 8th term of the Council of Oman, condemning the “barbaric Israeli aggression and siege.”
His Majesty stressed Oman’s firm policy that is built on good neighborliness, refraining from meddling in the internal affairs of others and consolidating foundations of stability and peace.
The foreign policy of the Sultanate of Oman, under the leadership of His Majesty Sultan Haitham bin Tarik, continues to provide a global role-model, based on mutual respect, common interests and benefits, non-interference in the internal affairs of countries, respect for international conventions and laws, and upholding the principles of peace, humanity, dialogue and tolerance.
In this context, His Majesty the Sultan said, “We reassert our firm political tenets, solidly anchored in the principles of good neighborliness and non-interference in the internal affairs of other sovereign nations. Our position is further rooted in a steadfast belief in the establishment of a just and equitable system for mutual benefit and exchange of interests, aimed at establishing solid foundations for stability and peace, and to make a positive contribution towards these noble objectives.”
Such principles and values pursued by the Sultanate of Oman in its foreign policy have made it a source of trust and appreciation for international units and organizations to play active roles and achieve security, peace and stability in a number of regional and international issues.
