The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela expressed in a statement its condemnation of the attacks carried out this Saturday by Israel and the United States against Iran.
In the text released by Foreign Minister Yván Gil, through his Telegram channel, the Government of Venezuela regrets that in a context where diplomatic efforts and negotiations on the Iranian nuclear program are being developed, “the military route has been chosen through attacks” against the Persian nation that can trigger “a dangerous and unpredictable escalation of events.”
Venezuela considers that this situation “places the region and the world before a scenario of enormously serious instability.”
In addition, regrets the reported innocent civilian casualties, including the murder of dozens of girls in one south of Minab.
Likewise, the Bolivarian Government urgently calls on the international community and the States involved to return to the path of negotiation to avoid further escalation.
Below is the text released by the Venezuelan Foreign Ministry:
This Saturday, Israel and the US launched a joint attack against the cities of Tehran, Isfahan, Qom, Karaj and Kermanshah, with the argument of “eliminating threats” and “threatening activities.”
The Israeli-American aggression was repelled by the Iranian Armed Forces, carrying out massive attacks against Israel and US military bases in Qatar, Bahrain and Kuwait.
Iran reported the start of Operation True Promise 4 to repel the aggression and indicated that it will maintain the offensive until the “criminal enemy” is defeated.
