On the way to today's foreign ministers' meeting in Brussels, Kallas warns against letting the war in Iran distract attention from Russia's war in Ukraine. This applies particularly economically, where Kallas disapproves of US actions to ease rising oil prices.
The US's easing of oil sanctions on Russia is a dangerous precedent, because right now we need to ensure that Russia has less money to wage the war, not more, Kallas says on the way into the meeting.
Both Iran and Ukraine are major topics during the day. Among other things, discussions are expected about how and whether the EU can contribute to keeping transport going through the Strait of Hormuz.
