# Translation: US Treasury Secretary Scott Besent threatened on Thursday to impose sanctions on the Sultanate of Oman if it cooperates with Iran in managing the Strait of Hormuz. He said via the X platform: The US government will not tolerate any attempt to establish a toll system in the Strait of Hormuz. He added that the Sultanate of Oman, in particular, should know that the US Treasury Department will relentlessly pursue any entity involved, directly or indirectly, in implementing tolls in the strait, and that any complicit partner will face sanctions.
