Five W. powers mull over possible sanctions on Iran after missile attack on Israel


US Secretary of State Antony Blinken convened a call with the foreign ministers of France, Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom on Wednesday to coordinate with them “a response to Iran’s attack on Israel” yesterday.

The discussions, which preceded US President Joe Biden’s call with the G7 leaders, dealt also with how to coordinate diplomatic efforts moving forward to ensure stability in the Middle East, Spokesperson of the State Department Matthew Alan Miller said in a press briefing.

“The Secretary then joined the president’s call with the G7 — where they made clear that the G7 condemns Iran’s attack on Israel and is working together on a response including new sanctions.” Miller added.
