World leaders quickly reacted after Donald Trump announced that the United States had carried out strikes on three nuclear facilities in Iran, including the heavily fortified Fordo Nuclear Facility. The president described the operation as a โvery successful attack,โ calling it a turning point in the escalating conflict.
โThis is an HISTORIC MOMENT FOR THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Israel, AND THE WORLD. IRAN MUST NOW AGREE TO END THIS WAR,โ Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social.
The announcement triggered swift international reactions, with governments and diplomatic officials weighing the potential consequences of the strikes and the risk of broader regional escalation. ๐โ ๏ธ
Abbas Araghchi, Iranโs foreign minister, responded in a statement posted on X (formerly Twitter), warning that Tehran was considering its options following the attack.
โThe events this morning are outrageous and will have everlasting consequences,โ Araghchi wrote. โEach and every member of the United Nations must be alarmed over this extremely dangerous, lawless and criminal behavior.โ
He added that Iran would act within the framework of international law, citing the United Nations Charter and its provisions allowing self-defense.
โIn accordance with the UN Charter and its provisions allowing a legitimate response in self-defense, Iran reserves all options to defend its sovereignty, interests, and people,โ Araghchi stated.
The exchange underscores the heightened tensions following the reported strikes, with global leaders now closely monitoring developments and urging caution as the situation continues to unfold.
