Spoke with @Amirabdolahian.

I underlined again the EU's position on Iran's behaviour: stop human rights violations, stop support to Russia's war of aggression, and stop unjustified detention of EU citizens.

Iran urgently needs to cooperate with @iaeaorg.

It is clear that to win peace, Ukraine needs first to win the war.

We have to increase our military support to Ukraine, in particular with more ammunition.

European Peace Facility could be used to help EU Member States to provide this as fast as possible.
