Russia has strongly condemned the joint US-Israel airstrike on Iran’s nuclear facilities in June, calling it a violation of international norms and a threat to regional stability. Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova reiterated Moscow’s commitment to a political and diplomatic resolution of Iran’s nuclear issue, emphasizing that any military action against facilities under the International Atomic Energy Agency’s supervision is unacceptable. She warned that such attacks undermine the global non-proliferation regime and the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). Zakharova also said that while some foreign powers seek to destabilize Iran internally, Tehran remains committed to dialogue to protect its national interests. She stressed that Iran must receive firm guarantees that its nuclear sites will not be targeted again and urged Western nations to abandon the language of sanctions and threats, returning instead to diplomacy. The statement follows recent talks between Russian and Iranian foreign ministers on the matter.
