I spoke with His Majesty the Sultan of Oman Haitham bin Tariq this evening.
I strongly condemned the Iranian attacks on Oman’s territory and expressed Europe’s full solidarity.
I am grateful for the role Oman has played in the indirect negotiations between the US and Iran.
And it will undoubtedly continue to play an important role in the crucial days and weeks ahead, in promoting stability across the region.
This crisis underscores the importance of further strengthening political dialogue between the EU and the Gulf Cooperation Council.
