The news of the U.S.-Iran deal coincides with world leaders meeting this week in France for the annual G7 summit. Among their responses, one comment stood out. 鈥淲e stand ready,鈥� Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said, 鈥渢ogether with our partners and without prejudice to the necessary authorisation from Parliament, to contribute to an international naval presence to support the full reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.鈥�

The deal does not include a durable framework for ending the war, including mechanisms to regulate Iran鈥檚 nuclear ambitions. But Ms. Meloni鈥檚 nod to the authority of democratic institutions underscores that diplomacy, like governance, derives legitimacy through accountability and the rule of law.
