France and the United States expressed concern over the deteriorating situation in the Middle East and called for calm. This was discussed during a conversation between French Foreign Minister Stephane Sejourné and US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, as reported by European Pravda.
Sejourne and Blinken expressed their concern about the growing tensions in the region and agreed to continue to urge the parties to maintain calm to prevent possible regional escalation that could lead to devastating consequences.
US President Joe Biden hopes Iran will not take steps to escalate the conflict with Israel despite threats of revenge for the killing of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh. Italy handed Iran a letter in Rome urging it not to allow tensions to escalate in the Mediterranean region of the Middle East.
The media reports that the US believes that a possible Iranian strike on Israel could occur on Monday, August 5. Sejourne and Blinken called on all parties to remain calm in order to avoid an escalation of the conflict in the Near and Middle East, as well as to advance peace in the region, including a long-term ceasefire in Gaza.
