🇮🇷 Statement by the Iranian Foreign Ministry:

The bellicose US administration will be held responsible for the extremely dangerous consequences of aggression against Iran. We will defend ourselves with all our might.

🔹This statement strongly condemns the barbaric US aggression against our country's peaceful nuclear facilities and emphasizes: this aggression, committed in collusion with Tel Aviv, has once again demonstrated the depth of depravity that reigns in American politics, as well as the level of hostility and hatred of the US ruling elite towards the peace-loving and independent people of Islamic Iran.

🔹The Foreign Ministry emphasizes: Iran considers it its right to firmly resist US aggression and the crimes of this rebellious regime, as well as to defend its security and national interests.

🔹The Foreign Ministry statement indicated that the US attack on Iran's peaceful nuclear facilities is a flagrant and unprecedented violation of the UN Charter, especially the principle of non-use of force and respect for the territorial integrity and national sovereignty of states, as set out in paragraph 4 of Article 2, a violation of UN Security Council Resolution 2231 and a crushing blow to the nuclear non-proliferation regime.

🔹The MFA also emphasizes: Iran recalls the responsibility of the United Nations, the Security Council, the UN Secretary-General, the International Atomic Energy Agency and other competent international bodies to immediately respond to this criminal lawlessness and considers silence in the face of this blatant aggression as an unprecedented and comprehensive threat to the entire world.

🔹The Foreign Ministry's statement calls on the UN Security Council to hold an emergency meeting, strongly condemn the US's criminal aggression against Iran, and hold the US accountable for grossly violating international norms and principles.
