ROMA (ITALPRESS) – “Iran must no longer attack the Gulf countries: our allies have nothing to do with the attacks that have been there.” Israel and Iran “must understand that one has to step forward. Iran must close the nuclear season and stop attacking countries that have nothing to do with war, including Turkey which is a NATO country and including Cyprus that is a European Union country.” Thus the vice-premier and foreign minister, Antonio Tajani, at “Mattino Cinque” on Canale 5. “The attempt to create chaos in the area is unacceptable by an authoritarian regime. Yesterday some terrorists of an Iranian cell were arrested in the Gulf,” he recalls. “I believe that Americans should also understand that, at some point, Iran must reach an agreement and find a solution for Hormuz.”.
“We must continue to ensure, with our military ships, the marine traffic in the Red Sea, and with the European mission Aspides and with the European mission Atlanta we must guarantee the fight against piracy, this is fundamental. Then once the war is over or at least the ceasefire has arrived, we can participate in wider UN initiatives to ensure the sea transport in Hormuz. It’s a long job, we have to push a lot for diplomacy. We are, of course, defending Cyprus with our military navy.”.
