The Iranian mission to the United Nations has issued a statement warning the United States about potential consequences of providing advanced weaponry to Israel. According to the Iranian mission, such actions could embolden Israel to engage in aggression against Iran, for which the US would be considered 'complicit'.
In a letter addressed to the UN Security Council, the Iranian mission emphasized that the United States would bear full responsibility for any acts of aggression by Israel against Iran. The letter specifically referenced remarks made by US President Joe Biden during a press briefing in Berlin on October 18, where Biden indicated an understanding of how Israel might respond to Iran's recent missile attack on October 1.
The Iranian mission interpreted Biden's comments as a form of approval and support for Israel's potential military actions against Iran. They accused the US of inciting and enabling Israel's aggression, labeling it as 'unlawful.'
These developments highlight the escalating tensions between Iran, Israel, and the United States in the region. The accusations and warnings from the Iranian mission underscore the delicate geopolitical dynamics at play and the potential ramifications of military actions in the Middle East.
