US and GCC back Lebanon talks, oppose Hormuz restrictions
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Gulf Cooperation Council foreign ministers reaffirmed their support for the US-Iran agreement, calling for continued momentum toward a permanent end to hostilities while rejecting any tolls or attempts to control passage through the Strait of Hormuz.
In a statement after their meeting, the ministers also reaffirmed their commitment to Lebanon's sovereignty and backed US-mediated talks between Israeli and Lebanese officials.
The ministers condemned "attacks by Iranian proxies in Iraq against GCC countries, including drone attacks damaging civilian facilities, critical infrastructure, and energy security," the statement said.
