Oman's Foreign Minister Badr Al Busaidi criticized the Trump administration, stating it had "lost control of its own foreign policy." Oman mediated US-Iran talks in February - the 6th in Oman and the 26th in Geneva. Just hours after the last round of talks ended, the US and Israel attacked Iran on February 28. Al Busaidi said peace was achievable, but Israel convinced Trump that Iran would quickly capitulate. He called the campaign catastrophic.
