Iran's foreign minister has been invited to Brussels, the European Union said Sunday, urging a "de-escalation of tensions" in the Gulf after US airstrikes that killed a top Iranian general.
The EU's foreign policy chief Josep Borrell made the offer to Mohammad Javad Zarif during a telephone call this weekend, a press release said.
"Borrell invited the Iranian Foreign Minister to Brussels to continue their engagement on these matters," it said.
