French President Emmanuel Macron and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer will co-host a videoconference in Paris this Friday to address Strait of Hormuz transit disruptions, seeking international cooperation. The summit aims to unite non-conflict nations willing to join a multilateral defensive mission to restore free maritime passage once security conditions stabilize, per a French presidency statement. Starmer will travel to Paris for the in-person meeting, signaling strengthened UK-France coordination on Middle East maritime security amid escalating regional tensions. Participating countries must demonstrate neutrality in the broader Middle East conflict while committing to collective action to safeguard critical shipping lanes. The initiative follows persistent attacks on commercial vessels in the Hormuz Strait, threatening global energy supply chains and prompting Western-led diplomatic interventions.
