Russia last night warned Donald Trump had opened ‘Pandora’s box’ after the US President launched a ‘bunker buster’ raid on Iran’s nuclear prgramme – as the Iranian regime arrived in Moscow for talks.
Trump said the audacious attack by a squadron of stealth bombers in the early hours of yesterday had ‘taken the bomb right out of [Tehran’s] hands’.
But Moscow’s United Nations ambassador Vassily Nebenzia issued an ominous warning at an emergency meeting of the Security Council as he said: ‘No one knows what new catastrophes and suffering it will bring.’
It comes amid fears Iran will lauch terror attacks on the West in revenge and as Iran’s foreign minister arrives in Moscow for talks with Vladimir Putin.
And he claimed Russia had offered mediation talks to find a peaceful and mutually agreeable solution to Iran’s nuclear program, but the US, especially its leaders, are ‘clearly not interested in diplomacy today’.
‘Unless we stop the escalation,’ Nebenzia warned, ‘the Middle East will find itself on the verge of a large-scale conflict with unpredictable consequences for the entire international security system, plus the entire world might end up on the verge of a nuclear disaster.’
Trump has sensationally called for a regime change in Iran as he held crisis talks with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Sunday.
The US president took to his Truth Social page to share updates about the country’s military attacks on Iran, when he suggested that the current regime ‘is unable to MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN’.
