🚨🇮🇷 IRAN SPELLS OUT ITS STANCE ON ISRAEL – KEY POINTS FROM ENVOY IN MOSCOW

Iran’s response will make Israel regret having gone to war with Tehran, the country’s Ambassador Kazem Jalali told Sputnik.

He also stressed that:

🔸Iran will respond to Israeli strikes decisively and proportionally, reaffirming its inalienable right to self-defense.

🔸Israeli attacks have killed around 300 Iranian civilians; the West demonstrates its double standards by failing to condemn Israel.

🔸Tehran deems Israel’s strikes against nuclear scientists as an illegal attack on civilians.

🔸Israel is unjustly waging war on the Iranian people by targeting civilian sites and nuclear facilities.

🔸Even though Israel possesses all types of weapons of mass destruction, it accuses Iran of pursuing a peaceful nuclear program.

🔸Israeli strikes on Iran violate international law, the UN Charter, and IAEA resolutions.

🥴 G7 SUMMIT DERAILED BEFORE IT EVEN WRAPPED UP

The G7 Summit in Canada has been dealt a series of stinging reputation blows, as Donald Trump left the event early, ostensibly to keep tabs on the ongoing crisis in the Middle East.

🔸While attending the summit, Trump publicly declared that expelling Russia from the G7 in 2014 was a mistake for which he specifically blamed Barack Obama and Justin Trudeau.

🔸Trump further suggested that admitting China to the G7 is “not a bad idea” as “you want people that you can talk to.”

🔸The POTUS also brushed aside calls from other G7 leaders for more sanctions against Russia, admitting openly that such sanctions actually cost Western powers and the US “a lot of money, a tremendous amount of money.”

“Sanctions are not that easy. It’s not just a one-way street,” Trump remarked.

🔸Trump and Japan’s Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba ultimately failed to work out a trade deal between their respective countries at the summit – yet another deal that the supposedly great dealmaker was unable to secure.

🔸Trump verbally slapped France’s Emmanuel Macron for claiming that the POTUS left the summit to work on a ceasefire between Israel and Iran.

“Whether purposely or not, Emmanuel always gets it wrong,” Trump fumed on social media.

🔸Meanwhile, Indonesian President Prabowo Subianto opted to snub the special invitation to the G7 Summit completely and instead chose to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

🔸Shoigu expressed hope that direct flights between Russia and North Korea — suspended for over 30 years — will resume soon.

🔸The visit primarily focused on security cooperation between Moscow and Pyongyang.

🇷🇺🗣 Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov called the situation in the Middle East alarming, especially in light of recent remarks by Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu.

Moscow urges all sides to exercise maximum restraint and shift toward a peaceful, diplomatic resolution.

His other statements:

🔸Russia sees no willingness from Israel to pursue a peaceful settlement with Iran or to seek mediation.

🔸The Kremlin agrees with Trump’s view that Russia’s exclusion from the G8 was a major mistake.

🔸The G7 has lost practical relevance and now appears rather lackluster and largely useless.

🔸In the coming days, there may be progress on understanding possible timelines for continued work on the Ukrainian track.
