German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul urged Iran on Monday to engage constructively in negotiations with regional countries and the US to bring the ongoing conflict to an end.
In a post on the US social media platform X, Wadephul said he made the call during a phone conversation with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.
"I urged Iran to finally engage constructively in negotiations with regional neighbours & USA in order to bring the conflict to an end," he said.
He also called for the unconditional reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a key maritime route for global energy supplies.
"The Strait of Hormuz needs to be opened unconditionally, ensuring free and safe navigation for all," he added.
