The European Union “condemns in the strongest terms” Iran’s attack against Israel, “which constitutes a serious threat to regional security”. It was stated by Josep Borrell, High Representative of the EU for Foreign Policy. “The EU reiterates its commitment to the security of Israel.” Borrell adds: “Once again, a dangerous cycle of attacks and retaliations risks fuelling an uncontrollable regional escalation which is in no one’s interest. The EU remains fully committed to lower the tensions and contribute to de-escalation to avoid a dangerous regional conflict”. The European Union “is and will continue to be in close contact with all actors to this end. We call on all parties to exercise utmost restraint”.
