(ANSA) - BELGRADE, JUN 18 - According to German Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul, Germany is willing to proceed with the removal of sea mines from the Strait of Hormuz, but only under certain conditions. First, all warfare must end, and all parties to the conflict must agree that the strait between Iran and Oman must be freely navigable once more, the CDU politician told the Rheinische Post. Furthermore, Germany should be tasked with clearing sea mines. "If that is the case, we are prepared—provided the Bundestag gives its consent." (ANSA).
