German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas arrived Saturday in Iraq to hold talks with Prime Minister Adel Abdel Mahdi and President Barham Salih over the increasing tensions between Iran and the US. Maass Iraq trip was previously not announced due to security reasons.
There is a clear danger of miscalculations, misunderstandings, provocations leading to unforeseeable consequences in this highly tense region, Maas said as he arrived in Baghdad.
The latest escalation requires us as European neighbors to intervene in favor of de-escalation and peaceful coexistence, Maas said. We cannot just seek dialogue; we must lead it, precisely where the differences seem insurmountable and long-simmering conflicts run deep.
We Europeans are convinced that it is worth every effort to work toward upholding the Vienna nuclear agreement with Iran, Maas added. [ ]
Maas will explore options to preserve the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), more commonly known as the 2015 Iran nuclear deal and hear assessments of the situation from regional partners, the ministry said.
