Rome, 14 June (LaPresse) – The Omani Foreign Ministry has announced that Foreign Minister Badr Albusaidi has held a series of telephone calls with his counterparts around the world ‘as part of ongoing diplomatic efforts to contain the dangerous military escalation and tensions’ in the Middle East. These tensions were ‘triggered by Israel's direct attacks on Iranian territory,’ the ministry said in a statement shared on social media. Albusaidi stressed during the calls ‘the importance of ending the aggression… in order to prevent further bloodshed, destruction and loss of life, and to safeguard the security, stability and supreme interests of the region and its peoples.’ Yesterday, the minister condemned Israel's attack on Iran as ‘illegal, unjustifiable and a serious threat to regional stability.’
