Foreign Ministry Spokesperson responds to UN Secretary-General

-this is an unprovoked act of aggression launched by two nuclear armed regimes against Iran.

Spokesperson of the Ministry of  Foreign Affairs Esmaeil Baqaei has written on X:

Dear Mr. Secretary General,

Let's call a spade a spade.

This is not "the fighting"; this is an 'unprovoked act of aggression' launched by two nuclear armed regimes against Iran.

 

We WERE in "serious diplomatic negotiations" while the U.S./Israel attacked Iran, for a second time during the past 9 months.

 

You are concerned about "grave risk to the global economy"; what about the innocent civilians, including 175 little angels slaughtered in the City of Minab, and many more killed and maimed across Iran during the past 7 days of American/Israeli criminal acts?!

 

The UN shall be forthright and shoulder its legal and moral responsibilities regarding this illegal war on Iran.
