Volt Europa expresses deep concern over the escalating tensions between Israel and Iran. The recent developments risk further destabilising an already volatile region and have the potential to lead to significant humanitarian and security crises.

As a pan-European political movement committed to promoting peace, democracy, and human rights, Volt Europa calls for immediate de-escalation and urges all sides to engage in constructive dialogue. We believe that diplomatic efforts, supported by the international community, are essential to resolving the underlying issues and preventing further escalation.

Volt Europa supports the efforts of the European Union and other international actors in mediating between Israel and Iran. We advocate for a comprehensive approach that addresses security concerns, respects national sovereignty, and upholds international law. It is crucial that all parties work towards a peaceful resolution that ensures the safety and well-being of all affected populations.

We urge restraint from all involved and encourage the international community to prioritise diplomacy and conflict resolution. Volt Europa remains committed to supporting initiatives that promote stability, peace, and cooperation in the Middle East and beyond.

Together, we can build a future where dialogue triumphs over conflict and mutual respect fosters lasting peace.
