BRUSSELS, Jan 5, 2020 (BSS/AFP) – Iran’s foreign minister has been invited
to Brussels, the European Union said Sunday, urging a “de-escalation of
tensions” in the Gulf after US air strikes that killed a top Iranian general.
The EU’s foreign policy chief Josep Borrell made the offer to Mohammad
Javad Zarif during a telephone call this weekend, a press release said.
“Borrell invited the Iranian Foreign Minister to Brussels to continue their
engagement on these matters,” it said.
