The EU's chief for foreign policy calls on the US and Israel to end the war with Iran
The EU's chief for foreign policy, Kalas, called on the US and Israel today on Tuesday to end the war with Iran, and said that the EU is consulting with governments in the Middle East to explore ways to end the conflict.
Today in Brussels, the EU's chief for foreign policy, Kalas, also stated that the EU has not ruled out Europe's participation in efforts to restore freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, but this is likely to be achieved through diplomatic means.
US President Trump called on European countries to participate in actions to maintain navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, but some European countries have clearly refused. The Strait of Hormuz, an important channel for the transport of oil, natural gas, and other goods, has been blocked by Iran.
European leaders are unwilling to involve their forces in a war not started by them, although Trump warned that the EU's reluctance to participate could have negative implications for the alliance with NATO.
The EU's chief for foreign policy, Kalas, said that Europe does not understand some of the actions or its goals regarding Iran under Trump's leadership, but has become accustomed to the unpredictability of the US and is responding with "more composure."
The EU's chief for foreign policy, Kalas, said the EU is consulting with Middle Eastern countries on how to end the war, as ending the war is in everyone's interest, and the EU is prepared to provide diplomatic assistance to encourage negotiations among all parties.
Kalas pointed out that the problem lies in the fact that it is much easier to start a war than to end it, and wars always tend to get out of control.
