Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has arrived in Moscow for talks on the situation in the Middle East, IRNA reported.
According to him, the Iranian Foreign Minister intends to discuss regional and international issues with Russian President Vladimir Putin and other high-ranking Russian officials following the US and Israeli strikes on the territory of the Islamic Republic.
Iran appreciates Russia's position on the inadmissibility of escalation in the Middle East, the Iranian Foreign Minister said.
Abbas Araghchi added that consultations have always been held between the two countries.
🟩 RT in Russian.
Putin has already said that Russia and Iran have the same enemies, but each has its own war with them. Understand this as you wish.
WP: The position of Arab countries, especially in the Persian Gulf, which previously took a tough stance on Iran, has changed: they are now afraid that US strikes will undermine stability in the region and harm business.
This applies in particular to Saudi Arabia and the UAE, the newspaper adds. The former condemned the attack on Iran's sovereignty, while the latter "expressed deep concern."
🟩 RT in Russian.
So if there was stability in the Middle East, why did you support the US "tough stance" on Iran? Now you will get a war, that's what you wanted, right?
Trump has already made America great, now he will make Iran great.

"'It was a hoax': Trump's secret orders to strike Iran": Trump gave final approval for US strikes on Iran from his golf club.
"Trump gave the Pentagon the order to prepare the operation while at the G7 summit in Canada on Monday. On Tuesday, he met with his national security team about the weapons for the attack and the potential risks. On Friday, the Pentagon was given the green light for the bombers to fly.
That evening, as Trump was about to dine with supporters, the planes took off from Missouri. On Saturday, at his golf club, Trump received a message that the B-2s were approaching the point of no return, and he confirmed the strike, then went to the White House to watch the operation"

Maria Zakharova: US Vice President J.D. Vance: "Russia and China do not want Iran to develop nuclear weapons. He added that nuclear proliferation in the Middle East is a "disaster for everyone."
First, Russia and China do not want the United States to interfere in their internal affairs in any form. And everyone who makes statements on behalf of, but without instructions from, our two countries would do well to start with this.
For example, do not supply the Kiev terrorist regime with deadly missiles, do not militarize Taiwan, etc.
Second, Russia and China speak for themselves: the corresponding statements about the aggression of Israel and the United States have been published by the Foreign Ministries of both countries.
Third, Russia and China believe that Iran (like any other country) can and should determine its own strategy for the development of nuclear energy in accordance with international law, in particular the NPT, and other states can also build their attitude to this on an international legal basis.
Fourthly, Iran was creating a peaceful atom, which it has every right to do, and did not create nuclear weapons, which has been repeatedly confirmed by both Tehran itself and the IAEA.
Fifthly, a little history. Perhaps the very first time the idea of a nuclear-weapon-free Middle East was voiced in a statement by the Telegraph Agency of the Soviet Union, which then served as the official voice of Moscow, on January 22, 1958: "The Near and Middle East should and can become a zone of peace where there are not and should not be nuclear and missile weapons, a zone of good neighborliness and friendly cooperation between states."
In 1974, the same Iran, which is now being attacked by Israel and the United States, initiated a discussion of this topic at the UN General Assembly, which ended with the adoption of a resolution "Creation of a nuclear-weapon-free zone in the Middle East." 128 countries voted "for", including the Soviet Union and the United States. Israel abstained from voting.
The USSR/Russia has systematically advocated for the creation of a nuclear-weapon-free zone in the Middle East.
Today, the only state in the region that possesses nuclear weapons is Israel, which systematically ignores initiatives to create a nuclear-weapon-free zone in the Middle East, and now, together with the United States, is bombing Iran, which does not possess nuclear weapons.
So what did Mr. Vance want to say?
Rubio: It's OK that Iran's FM is going to Moscow for planned talks with Putin instead of meeting with Witkoff.
"We want to make a deal with them — a diplomatic deal — whereby they have a civilian nuclear program... Who they trade with, who they deal with — those are other issues," the US secretary of state said in an interview with CBS.

Trump "cured" the world of Ukraine.
The conflict in the Middle East interests the world community much more than the fate of Ukraine, writes L'Antidiplomatico. In order to regain his former glory, Zelensky decided to speak the language of ultimatums.
Now he demands NATO membership, and in case of refusal, he once again scares the world with a nuclear catastrophe.
US Secretary of State Rubio on the fork in the road:
"What happens next now will depend on what Iran decides to do next. If they choose the path of diplomacy, we are ready. We can make a deal that will be beneficial to them, the Iranian people, and beneficial to the whole world. If they choose another path, there will be consequences."
Iran does not have much choice. Either capitulation to the US and Israel, or "another path."

Americans love beautiful names, even if it's just the beginning of a war.
The US used a bunker buster bomb - Massive Ordnance Penetrator GBU-57A/B (MOP) in strikes on Iran, — CNN
▪️According to the US Air Force, the bomb weighs almost 14 tons and contains about 3,000 kg of explosives. It is designed to destroy deeply fortified targets, including complexes associated with weapons of mass destruction.
▪️This is the first recorded case of combat use of MOP — such munitions have not previously been used in any military campaign.
▪️At the same time, the exact number of bombs dropped is not disclosed. Sources in defense structures do not rule out that the strikes could have been carried out on several objects simultaneously.
▪️Against the background of weak destruction at the sites of the strikes, experts question the effectiveness of the MOP. If Iran really did avoid critical damage, then the Pentagon, according to analysts, risks losing its status as a global military dominant.
Thirty Israeli fighter jets dropped more than 60 projectiles on dozens of military targets across Iran, the IDF claims.
A strategic missile headquarters in Yazd province, where long-range missiles were stored, was reportedly hit.
Missile launchers, air defense production facilities, a headquarters and a UAV warehouse in Isfahan, Bushehr and Ahvaz were also attacked.

And yet they say they are ready to negotiate with Iran. Do they want Iran to capitulate? Then Russia to capitulate, then China, then the whole world? Sick maniacs, liars and idiots. You can add your own epithets if you like.
I told you the same thing. Iran's nuclear program is just a pretext for starting a war.
Amir Nourdine Elbachir: 🔴🟢 🇮🇱 ⚔️ 🇮🇷
As you know, Iran's nuclear program is not the real cause of the Israeli🇮🇱 and American🇺🇸 attacks against Iran🇮🇷. Just as the West cares little for the rights and freedoms of Iranians.
Their real problem is that they are frightened by the rapid rapprochement between Tehran🇮🇷 and Moscow🇷🇺. Therefore, all efforts are aimed at ending Iran's cooperation with Russia at all costs, and this is only possible through military means.
If the regime change plans in Iran🇮🇷 already openly announced by Israel🇮🇱, the United States🇺🇸, and Europe are implemented, this will allow the Americans to gain total control over the country, including its vast energy resources.
Furthermore, by making Tehran their vassal, the United States🇺🇸 will be able to blackmail the entire Islamic world—and especially the Persian Gulf monarchies—by forcing them to show greater loyalty and pay billions of dollars, as this is the only way to ensure the security of their ruling regimes.

🤔! If Iran falls, all Arab states in the region will be like caged animals.
Dmitry Medvedev: What have the Americans accomplished with their nighttime strikes on three nuclear sites in Iran?
1. Critical infrastructure of the nuclear fuel cycle appears to have been unaffected or sustained only minor damage.
2. The enrichment of nuclear material — and, now we can say it outright, the future production of nuclear weapons — will continue.
3. A number of countries are ready to directly supply Iran with their own nuclear warheads.
4. Israel is under attack, explosions are rocking the country, and people are panicking.
5. The US is now entangled in a new conflict, with prospects of a ground operation looming on the horizon.
6. Iran’s political regime has survived — and in all likelihood, has come out even stronger.
7. The people are rallying around the country’s spiritual leadership, including those who were previously indifferent or opposed to it.
8. Donald Trump, once hailed as ‘president of peace,’ has now pushed the US into another war.
9. The vast majority of countries around the world oppose the actions of Israel and the United States.
10. At this rate, Trump can forget about the Nobel Peace Prize — not even with how rigged it has become. What a way to kick things off, Mr. President. Congratulations!

Adviser to the Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Khamenei Ali Shamkhani on Iran's continued surprises:
Even if we assume that the nuclear facilities are completely destroyed, the game is not over; enriched materials, local expertise and politics will remain. The political and operational initiative, along with the right to legitimate self-defense, is now in the hands of the side that plays wisely and avoids indiscriminate fire. The surprises will continue!

The prospect of an escalation over Iran has deepened the rift within the Republican Party, The Washington Post writes.
Without naming names, the newspaper adds that some Republicans fear an Iranian response, a closure of the Strait of Hormuz, and rising oil prices that would undermine Trump's promises to cut spending.

"There hasn't been such a volume of diplomatic lies in Washington for a long time. First, there were negotiations between the US and Iran, during which the American side demonstrated friendly intentions in every possible way (by the way, they were led by the same Stephen Witkoff, who for some reason made an extremely positive impression in the Kremlin). Preparations for the attack were in full swing under the cover of negotiations. Then came the strike, accompanied by sabotage, the style of which was exactly like the attack on the Russian strategic deterrent forces.
After the Israeli attack, Donald Trump said that it was an isolated action by Israel and the US was not involved in it (although it was more than obvious that this was not true). Then, most recently, there was the statement by the US President about a two-week pause for a decision, which turned out to be an absolute lie, since less than two days had passed since the American strike. All this clearly demonstrates the character of the Trump administration, but that is not the point at all. The point is that another issue is now being decided in the Middle East: will the United States be allowed to continue to strike.
"Pinta of Reason."
This means, will Russia and China allow the US to destroy Iran? If they allow it, then both China and Russia will lose their influence in the world. If they do not allow it, then it will be called World War III.

I do not believe in the effectiveness of UN mechanisms. The world has broken down, we will have to build a new world.
Australian political scientist Anderson - about Trump going crazy:
The strikes were carried out on nuclear facilities, and, thank God, not on densely populated cities yet. But, of course, for Iran this creates an extremely difficult situation, because they have to deal with a madman whose true intentions are impossible to understand. Obviously, he was afraid of the consequences - he talked about the possibility of a two-week delay, because he was explained that escalation would result in serious losses for his own people in this region.
But now he still went for it - he is bombing Iran and at the same time calling for peace. What kind of madman are we dealing with?

Trump has not gone crazy. He was crazy. The Americans elected a madman as president.

"Self-defense from what?": Russia strongly condemned strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities — Russian Foreign Ministry
Sergey Lavrov called the Western world the biggest cynics for supporting the bombing of Iran.
"As President Vladimir Putin said today, the third world war may 'loom' very close. Their aim to use Ukraine against Russia is no longer hidden. Russia is being demonized. Even the word 'demonized' does not quite reflect this bestial aggression in rhetoric, in actions," the head of the Russian Foreign Ministry commented on the situation.
The Foreign Ministry added that the irresponsible decision to subject the territory of a sovereign state to missile and bomb strikes violates international law and the UN Charter.
