In a affirmation, the German international ministry said, "The international ministers agreed that they would like to revive the typically close transatlantic partnership and tackle global challenges mutually in future."
"This initial, in-depth exchange between your international ministers since President Biden's inauguration was characterised by a trusting and constructive ambiance." The European foreign ministers and their different US counterpart Antony Blinken discussed the Iran nuclear package, which has experienced tatters since past President Donald Trump pulled out of the pact in 2018.
"The E3 and the US discussed what sort of united approach could address our shared worries towards Iran," tweeted Uk Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab, with E3 referring to the 3 European signatories to the 2015 Iran package. French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian on Twitter referred to the talks as an "essential discussion on Iran" and handling nuclear and regional reliability challenges "together".
In a shift from Trump's go-it-alone 'America First' approach, STATE DEPT. spokesman Ned Price explained that Blinken 'underscored the US commitment to coordinated actions to?overcome?global challenges'.?
Blinken and his counterparts "affirmed the centrality of the transatlantic relationship in coping with security, climate, economic, health and different challenges the world faces," Price said.
