Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi recently expressed his concerns about the potential repercussions of the United States and Israel pursuing military action against each other. In a post on X, Araghchi warned that supporting such a conflict could have severe and lasting consequences for both nations, whether it manifested in Gaza or within Iran's borders.
He criticized NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, questioning his understanding of diplomacy, and pointed out that Rutte had claimed the US operations in Iran would be impossible without Europe's support. During meetings with EU counterparts, Araghchi had earlier cautioned them against facilitating and endorsing Israeli-U.S. war crimes.
