ROMA (ITALPRESS) – “We welcome the announcement of the memorandum of understanding between the United States and Iran. We congratulate the United States, the Iranian government and all the parties involved, including Pakistan, Qatar and all other mediators, for this diplomatic breakthrough.” Thus in a joint declaration the leaders of the United Kingdom, France, Germany and Italy.
“This is an opportunity to restore regional stability and stabilize the global economy. It is now essential that the detailed negotiations be concluded and that this agreement is implemented quickly and fully. We are ready to support this effort. The urgent reopening of the Strait of Hormuz with unconditional freedom of navigation and without restrictions is essential. We strive to do our part to achieve this goal, in accordance with our respective constitutional obligations, even through a strictly defensive and independent mission to reassure commercial navigation and conduct demining operations.”.
“Iran must never acquire a nuclear weapon. We are ready to cooperate with the United States, Iran and IAEA for this purpose. We are ready to revoke relevant sanctions in response to clear and verifiable steps from Iran on its nuclear program. We will work hard with the United States, Iran and regional partners to seize this opportunity, maintain momentum and achieve a long-term diplomatic solution. We also reaffirm our full support for the stability, sovereignty and territorial integrity of Lebanon and the importance of an effective ceasefire.”.
MELONI “OCCASIONE PACE CHE VA COLTA, ITALIA PRONTA A SOSTENERE ACCORDO”
“In the night we have already expressed, together with France, Germany and the United Kingdom, our strong appreciation for the Memorandum of Understanding signed by the United States and Iran in the past hours. A heartfelt thanks goes to all mediators, and in particular to Qatar and Pakistan, who made this agreement possible. It is an opportunity of peace that must be taken: Italy, as already in the past, is ready to support the diplomatic process towards an overall agreement.” Thus the President of the Council, Giorgia Meloni, in a note.
“The principles are clear: Iran cannot equip itself with the nuclear weapon and freedom of navigation must be guaranteed. We are ready, together with the other partners and with the necessary parliamentary authorization, to contribute to an international naval presence to accompany the full reopening of the Strait of Hormuz”, continues Meloni. “It is necessary, finally, that hostilities also cease to exist in Lebanon, where Italy will continue to work to support the Lebanese sovereignty,” Meloni concludes.
