📄 Iran warns against global silence and ambivalent stances on illegal US–Israeli aggression 📌 Tehran, IRNA — Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, referring to the unprovoked and illegal war launched by the United States and the Israeli regime on Iran, says the silence on illegitimate attacks or hesitant stance by world countries would only encourage the aggressors to repeat their crimes. Araghchi made the remarks in a speech delivered at the meeting of foreign ministers of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) member states in the Kyrgyz resort town of Cholpon-Ata on Friday. ​ He touched on several issues and developments in the region and beyond, especially the ongoing US–Israeli military adventurism in the West Asia region and their disregard for international law and agreements. ​ Referring to the two wars imposed on Iran since last year, Araghchi said the world witnessed repeated aggression by the United States and the Zionist regime, which responded to diplomacy not through negotiations but through military attacks. ​ The top diplomat noted that the two aggressive American and Israeli regimes, with their illegal and illegitimate attacks since June 2025, not only targeted the security of the Iranian nation, but also the credibility of the entire international legal system. ​ He said the Iranian nation experienced one of the most bitter and painful days in its history, when the Leader of the Islamic Revolution, as the highest political and religious authority of Iran, was martyred along with his family members while they were in his office. ​ Araghchi also highlighted the heinous crimes committed by the aggressors on the first days of war, with the bombing of a school in the city of Minab and massacring 168 students, school staff, and their family members, as well as hitting a stadium in the city of Lamerd in Fars Province with missiles, martyring young girls, who had aspired to be champions and shine in national and international arenas. ​ [This item is being updated.] 📲 ​
