"To save time, we have decided to send some of the units to the Mediterranean ahead of schedule so as not to lose any time once we have the mandate."
"That substantially accelerated the beginning of the deployment, following a similar course of action ahead of the EU's Aspides mission in the Red Sea."
"Around a fifth of the world's oil and gas passes through the strait and its almost two-month closure has had major impacts on economies worldwide."
German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius announced plans to deploy naval ships to the Mediterranean Sea to prepare for an international mission in the Strait of Hormuz. He emphasized that deployment in the strait requires a mandate from the German Bundestag. The decision to send units ahead of time aims to expedite the process once approval is granted. A minesweeper and support ship will be included in the deployment, while other deployments will be reduced in coordination with partners. The Strait of Hormuz remains critical for global oil and gas transport.
