Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi and EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas discussed regional and international developments, including what Tehran said was Ukraine’s attack on an Iranian commercial vessel in the Caspian Sea and tensions in the Strait of Hormuz, during a call Saturday, APA reports.
Araghchi strongly condemned the attack in the Caspian Sea, according to a statement by Iran’s Foreign Ministry.
He urged a “decisive response” from the UN Security Council, the European Union and the broader international community, asking them to hold accountable those responsible for and supporting the “criminal” attack.
The two officials also discussed developments in the Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz following Iran’s military response to US attacks against Iran.
Araghchi and Kallas emphasized the need for diplomatic initiatives to manage tensions and prevent further escalation in the region, according to the ministry.
