He made the remarks during separate phone calls with Omani Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi and Saudi Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan, Iran's state broadcaster IRIB reported Tuesday.
The talks covered bilateral relations and the latest regional developments, according to the report.
Araghchi stressed the need to strengthen regional cooperation and intensify joint diplomatic efforts to promote stability across the region and "eliminate the state of instability in the Strait of Hormuz resulting from the aggressive actions of the U.S."
