00:00It is a big advantage vis-à-vis a lot of non-European players.
00:06When I look at the Gulf, when I look at Asian countries, when I look at Latin America or Africa,
00:12they just want to have predictable partners.
00:15They can disagree with us, sometimes our interests will not be aligned.
00:19But as long as we deliver our agenda being predictable, it makes sense.
00:23If we go to Hormuz Trait, I think we have a very important role to play.
00:28We were, a lot of us were around this VTC, we co-organized with Key and Georgia was with us
00:34in Paris with Friedrich.
00:36And we had a lot of Asian countries, a lot of African countries and Gulf countries.
00:42And it was very impressive to see that everybody was aligned.
00:46And I think the role we can play is precisely, obviously we are trusted by the US,
00:53but we are respected and trusted by the Iranians.
00:56We are not naive vis-à-vis the Iranians, but we are not at war with them,
01:00which creates a context where we can be this, altogether we can provide, I would say, services
01:07from diplomatic, military and economic and financial side,
01:12in order to facilitate a free reopening of Hormuz Trait.
