The United Kingdom is leading a diplomatic effort involving around 40 countries to pressure Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a critical waterway for global oil shipments that was blocked during a recent conflict. The UK is hosting talks focused on ensuring safe passage through the strait, explicitly ruling out a UK military role in any war with Iran.
France's President Macron is proposing a diplomatic framework that includes third parties to resolve the broader Iran conflict, while a French-owned ship has reportedly crossed the strait. India's External Affairs Minister Jaishankar has spoken with his Iranian counterpart, and India has noted it is the only nation to have lost mariners in the Hormuz area.
