Japan and five European countries have announced their readiness to join a coordinated effort to reopen the Hormuz Strait and ensure safe maritime passage. In a joint statement, Britain, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Japan said they would participate in an 'appropriate effort' to stabilize global energy markets disrupted by recent conflicts. The announcement follows multiple attacks on energy facilities in the Gulf region amid the ongoing U.S.-Israel conflict with Iran, which has sent oil and gas prices soaring.
The countries did not specify what form their 'appropriate effort' would take but urged an immediate halt to attacks on oil, gas, and civilian infrastructure. They also pledged to take necessary measures to stabilize international energy markets and to work with certain energy-producing nations to boost production and restore balance.
Since February 28, when U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran began, shipping through the Hormuz Strait has been nearly halted. Before the conflict, about one-fifth of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas exports passed through this vital waterway.
