EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas has said the recent exchange of strikes between the United States and Iran has further complicated efforts to negotiate an end to the conflict.
Writing on X, Kallas described Iran's attacks on US facilities in Bahrain and Kuwait as unacceptable, Caliber.Az reports.
“Under the memorandum, Tehran committed to reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Its recent attacks on ships near the Strait violate that commitment and threaten to disrupt the resumption of energy supplies. Freedom of navigation must be unimpeded,” she noted.
According to Kallas, EU foreign ministers will meet with their counterparts from Gulf countries on July 13 to discuss how “together to support the implementation of the agreement and preserve freedom of navigation in the Strait as well as the Red Sea.”
