London, June 15 /Xinhua/ — The leaders of the United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Italy in a joint statement welcomed the peace agreement between the USA and Iran, which was announced on Sunday.

“This is a favorable moment for the restoration of regional stability and the stabilization of the global economy,” BBC statement quotes.

Noting that Tehran “should never acquire nuclear weapons,” four European countries emphasized that they “are ready to lift the relevant sanctions in response to clear, verifiable steps by Iran regarding its nuclear program.”

European leaders called for a “rapid and comprehensive implementation” of the agreement between the USA and Iran, adding that it is “urgently necessary to open the Strait of Hormuz, ensuring unconditional and unrestricted freedom of navigation.”

“We will work intensively with the USA, Iran, and regional partners to take advantage of this moment, consolidate the momentum, and achieve a long-term diplomatic resolution,” the statement says.

Earlier, Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif announced on the X website that the USA and Iran have reached a peaceful agreement after intensive negotiations, and the official signing ceremony is scheduled for June 19 in Switzerland.

A few minutes later, US President Donald Trump wrote on the social network Truth Social: “The deal with the Islamic Republic of Iran is now complete.” “I hereby fully authorize the duty-free opening of the Strait of Hormuz and simultaneously authorize the immediate lifting of the American naval blockade,” he declared.
