Spain, Oman Forge Stronger Bilateral Ties

(MENAFN) Spain and Oman have taken significant steps to expand their bilateral partnership during the state visit of Omani Sultan Haitham Bin Tariq Al-Busaid to Madrid, a trip the Spanish government said “served to advance a relationship based on dialogue, sustainability, and mutual benefit.”

In a statement released by La Moncloa, the office of Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez confirmed that Sánchez hosted the Sultan for high-level talks that resulted in a joint declaration, the signing of an international treaty, and the conclusion of six memorandums of understanding (MoUs).

According to the Spanish government, the two leaders reviewed global and regional issues, including the conflict in Gaza. Both “agreed that the situation remained extremely fragile, called for the Sharm el-Sheikh ceasefire to be upheld, and reiterated their support for efforts to achieve a two-state solution.”

The newly signed agreements prioritize economic and strategic collaboration, particularly in renewable energy, green hydrogen, energy efficiency, and smart grids. The two nations also pledged to deepen cooperation in sustainable water management, focusing on desalination, water reuse, and protection of natural resources.

An MoU on investments establishes a framework for co-investment across sectors such as energy, infrastructure, logistics, technology, agriculture, and tourism. Three additional MoUs cover cooperation in agriculture and food security, transport and infrastructure, and culture, youth, and sport.

In a further step to ease diplomatic relations, both countries signed an international treaty exempting holders of diplomatic, official, and service passports from visa requirements.
