Ammon News -

The agreement ​between the United States and Iran ​should allow for the "immediate reopening" of the Strait of Hormuz, EU ​Commission ‌President Ursula von ⁠der Leyen said.

"The priority ‌now is its swift and ⁠full implementation by all parties," von der Leyen said about ​the announced deal.

"Freedom ‌of navigation must be restored toll-free. This is essential for regional ‌stability and the global economy. ​It opens the door to broader negotiations on peace and security in the ​Middle East," she added.

Von ​der Leyen also ​said that peace in the Middle ​East was impossible "while Lebanon is in flames."

"Once again Europe calls on all parties to respect ⁠Lebanon's sovereignty and territorial integrity and implement ⁠a ​genuine ceasefire," she said.
