#UPDATE
Iranian Ambassador to London: Indian Embassy granted the right to visit 18 Indian crew members of the seized British tanker.

My take:
#Iran's regime has committed piracy & taken these crew members hostage. They must be confronted with a firm response immediately.
#UPDATE
Indian gov: Iranian authorities release nine Indians from Panama-flagged Riah oil tanker seized by #Iran

My take:
Tehran is attempting to "cooperate" after news of Europe & Gulf states weighing separate initiatives to use naval forces to protect ships in regional waters.
#UPDATE
Danish Foreign Minister Anders Samuelsen: We welcome a British plan for a naval mission in the Strait of Hormuz and look positively at our possible participation.
My mistake:
Danish Foreign Minister Jeppe Kofod
