UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer referred to the impact of freedom of navigation on the global economy.

Assessing the economic effects of the current situation, Starmer said, “The ongoing closure of the Strait of Hormuz is extremely harmful. Reviving global shipping is vital to easing cost-of-living pressures.”

Drawing attention to the international coalition and planned diplomatic steps, Starmer said, “The United Kingdom has brought together more than 40 countries that share our goal of restoring freedom of navigation.”

Starmer added, “This week, the United Kingdom and France will host a joint summit to advance work on a coordinated, independent, multinational plan to protect international shipping once the conflict ends.”
