Oman state TV said the former sultan’s letter was opened by the Defence Council and his identity was announced shortly thereafter.
As sultan, he also held the positions of prime minister, supreme commander of the armed forces, minister of defense, minister of finance, and minister of foreign affairs until 18 August 2020 when he appointed Sayyid Badr bin Hamad bin Hamood Al Busaidi as Foreign Minister and Sultan bin Salem bin Saeed al-Habsi as minister of finance.
