Moscow has denounced former President Donald Trump's threats to bomb Iran, deeming them "illegal and unacceptable." Russian officials stated that such statements are a dangerous escalation and undermine efforts to resolve the Iranian nuclear issue through diplomacy.
The Kremlin emphasized that military threats violate international law and contribute to instability in the already volatile Middle East. Russia has consistently advocated for the full implementation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), also known as the Iran nuclear deal, which aimed to limit Iran's nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief.
"We believe that such rhetoric is counterproductive and only serves to exacerbate tensions," a Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson said. "The international community should focus on finding peaceful and diplomatic solutions to address concerns regarding Iran's nuclear program."
Russia's stance underscores the ongoing geopolitical tensions surrounding Iran's nuclear ambitions and the differing approaches to resolving the issue among major world powers. The situation remains sensitive, and further escalation could have significant consequences for regional and global security.
