AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Hormuz Diplomacy: Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian says Tehran and Oman agreed a Strait of Hormuz passage route, but reopening hinges on US commitments under the Islamabad Memorandum—lifting sanctions, releasing frozen assets, investment, and ending the Lebanon war. Sanctions Pressure: The US Treasury moves to cut Banque Misr’s UAE branches off from the US dollar system, proposing to revoke correspondent banking access and sanctioning UAE-linked entities tied to alleged Iranian shadow finance. Regional Talks: Iraq’s FM Fuad Hussein and Oman’s counterpart Badr al-Busaidi discussed Hormuz understandings and the regional fallout from tougher US anti-Iran sanctions. Qatar Mobility & Tourism: Qatar Airways partners with Uber for Business to streamline corporate travel, while Qatar welcomes its first leisure charter flight from Yerevan, boosting inbound tourism. Qatar Green Push: Qatar reports green areas rising to 21.9mn sqm in 2025, with per-person green space up to 6.8sqm. UAE Aviation Milestone: Etihad’s Captain Huda Al Musallami becomes the UAE’s first Emirati woman pilot instructor. Kuwait-Pakistan Defense: Kuwait and Pakistan sign a defence and military cooperation agreement in Islamabad, aiming to boost coordination and readiness.
