EU Council: Priority is reopening Hormuz

The President of the European Council has stated that the full and unconditional reopening of the Strait of Hormuz remains a top priority for the bloc. In the same statement, the official pledged continued support for authorities in Lebanon to disarm Hezbollah, calling it the only way to restore stability in the country. This marks a clear European alignment with the goal of reopening the critical waterway while linking regional stability to the disarmament of the Iran-backed group.
