Ireland urges restraint in the Gulf and warns Iran over destabilizing activity

Tishuk warned that the conflict in the Gulf is having a serious global impact and urged a return to good-faith negotiations, stating that Iran must cease attacks on its neighbors and end destabilizing activities, including strikes on ships in the Strait of Hormuz. "If we are to build greater stability, Iran must never have a nuclear weapon," he said.

He argued that dialogue is the path to negotiated settlement and called on all states to avoid actions that escalate regional tensions and disrupt maritime transit.
