The leaders of Britain, France, Germany, Italy, and Poland, meeting in Berlin, welcomed the U.S.-Iran agreement as an opportunity to restore stability to the Middle East and the global economy, according to a report from the 301 channel. They expressed support for full implementation and immediate diplomatic efforts to ensure the political process leads to lasting peace.
The leaders of five major European powers — the UK, France, Germany, Italy, and Poland — issued a joint statement at the conclusion of their meeting in Berlin on Thursday, welcoming the U.S.-Iran agreement and describing it as an opportunity to restore stability to the Middle East and the global economy, according to a report from the 301 channel. The leaders emphasized their support for full implementation of the accord and called for immediate and comprehensive diplomatic efforts to ensure the political process leads to stable, long-term peace.
This statement adds to a growing chorus of international endorsements. Earlier this week, the G7 endorsed the deal as a "historic opportunity" to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte called it a "positive step." The E4 group (Germany, France, Italy, UK) had previously welcomed the memorandum of understanding between the U.S. and Iran. This latest statement encompasses Poland, expanding the European bloc endorsing the agreement.
No details were provided on specific sanctions relief or implementation timelines. The statement reflects broad European diplomatic alignment behind the deal, though questions about verification mechanisms and Iran's compliance remain open.
