Macron talks on Strait mission led by France and Britain
French President Emmanuel Macron stated that France and Britain are prepared to lead a military mission in the Strait of Hormuz to ensure freedom of navigation, in cooperation with several European countries including Italy and the Netherlands, following a potential agreement between the United States and Iran. Macron confirmed that Oman does not oppose the presence of an international mission in the region, and that it may take several weeks for the actual impact of an agreement with Iran on energy markets to become evident. Meanwhile, the U.S. President announced that the strait will be reopened to navigation after the signing of a peace agreement with Iran, leading to a sharp rise in Asian stocks.
