He also welcomed Oman's recent decision to open its airspace to all civilian aircraft, including those flying to and from Israel. Both leaders committed to strengthening the U.S.-Oman strategic partnership, trade and investment opportunities, and cooperation on clean, diversified, secure energy sources.
