Iranian Foreign Minister Condemns US and Israeli Strikes as Violations of International Law
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi condemned recent US and Israeli military strikes on Iran as violations of international law and Iran's sovereignty. Writing in Kyodo News, he emphasized Iran's right to self-defense under Article 51 of the UN Charter, arguing that unilateral preemptive attacks undermine the global legal order. Araghchi stressed that force is only justified in response to an armed attack and criticized the absence of UN Security Council approval for these strikes, warning that allowing states to act on perceived future threats threatens international stability.
