(Bloomberg) -- Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis said Greece and Europe will not participate in any military operations near Iran, after US President Donald Trump demanded that allies send vessels to help restart shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.
“The simple answer is no, Greece is not going to participate in any operation around the theater of current operations,” he said at a Bloomberg event in Athens on Tuesday. “I doubt that there is much European appetite for such a mission right now.”
Trump recently said European and Asian countries must send ships to help reopen the Strait of Hormuz, which has been effectively closed to oil tankers since the US-Israeli attacks on Iran began. But nations have largely deflected the president’s overtures.
Instead, Mitsotakis said European leaders must address the war’s spillover effects on the continent, such as high energy prices. EU leaders will gather in Brussels on Thursday to consider short-term measures to cut power prices. “I think that Europe will not be drawn in militarily, but Europe certainly needs to focus on the economic ramifications of the crisis,” he said.
