Appreciation for Oman

Extensions of Remarks

Printed in the Congressional Record of Jul 23, 2026.

Text in the Record

Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, the relationship between the Sultanate of Oman and America goes back over 200 years. Trade relations between the two countries were established in the early years of American independence on September 21, 1833, with the Treaty of Amity and Commerce. Oman was the first Gulf nation to recognize America, sending an envoy in 1841. Today, Oman is a key American security, economic, and defense partner with a Free Trade Agreement coming into effect on January 1, 2009, leading to trade of over $4 billion in goods and services. The terrorist regime in Iran has launched at least 19 drone attacks on Oman in recent months targeting their ports, as well as an attack on Omani radar systems this month. Iran and its terrorist regime must be stopped and reopen the Strait of Hormuz without tolls or fees. In conclusion, God Bless Our Troops. Trump is reinstituting Peace Through Strength, revealing war criminal Putin lies, insulting Trump and mocking Trump as war criminal Putin provides targeting intelligence to Iran to kill American troops which confirms the need for the Lindsey Graham Russian-Iran Sanctions Act.
