Paglalarawan

How has the "Switzerland of the Middle East" managed to anger the Trump administration? US President Trump threatened last week to "blow up" Oman if it did not "behave". Reports have since alleged that the US is quietly pressuring Oman to cut ties with Iran and side more firmly with the US.
