Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi welcomed the memorandum of understanding between the United States and Iran, expressing hope that its implementation will restore peace and stability in the region and ensure freedom of navigation and trade, according to a report from a news aggregation channel.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday publicly welcomed the memorandum of understanding reached between the United States and Iran, becoming the latest world leader to react to the emerging deal. In a statement cited by a news aggregation channel, Modi said: "India hopes that implementation of this understanding will help restore peace and stability in the region and ensure freedom of navigation and trade."
Modi's statement follows public welcomes from Qatar's Prime Minister and French President Macron, as The Zioneer reported earlier. Qatar's Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani expressed hope for constructive talks, while Macron pledged continued support for Lebanon's sovereignty.
Modi is currently India's longest-serving prime minister, a milestone for which he received congratulations from US President Donald Trump earlier this month. His endorsement of the US-Iran MOU aligns with India's broader interest in stability in the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz, through which a significant portion of India's oil imports transit.
