Kaya Calas Calls for More Ships in Red Sea Mission

European Union Foreign Policy Chief Kirsti Kauppi emphasized that the Aspides naval mission tasked with protecting navigation in the Red Sea needs to expand its fleet to more than 10 warships, as the current number is insufficient for the area. The mission was launched in 2024 to secure shipping routes from attacks by the Houthis in Yemen, and it currently comprises six ships. However, the situation has become more perilous as the Houthis have advanced rapidly along the coast, complicating maritime routes—especially with the narrowing of navigational passages through the Strait of Hormuz due to the ongoing U.S. conflict with Iran.
