Von der Leyen and Costa call for maximum restraint amid tensions in Iran

French President Emmanuel Macron reacted on the social network X to the “start of war between the United States, Israel and Iran”, considering that the conflict “has serious consequences for international peace and security”.

“The current escalation is dangerous for everyone. It needs to stop. The Iranian regime needs to understand that it now has no option but to engage in good faith negotiations to end its nuclear and ballistic missile programs, as well as its actions to destabilize the region. This is absolutely essential for the security of everyone in the Middle East,” wrote the French president.

“The Iranian people also need to be able to build their future freely. The massacres perpetrated by the Islamic regime discredit it and demand that the people have a voice. The sooner the better”, continued Macron, who revealed that France “requests urgent meeting of the United Nations Security Council” and is in close contact with “European partners” and “friends from the Middle East”.

The Gallic head of state also assured that “all measures are being taken to guarantee the security” of French territory, citizens and resources in the Middle East.
