To evaluate the consequences of the American-Israeli attack on Iran is according to Czech President Peter Pavl premature at this time. However, he pointed out that the Czech Republic has long condemned human rights violations in Iran or its support for terrorism. He hopes that the tension in the region will be reduced. He wrote it on Saturday on the X social network, reports TASR in Prague.
“I am closely following the current events in the Middle East. At this moment, it is premature to assess the consequences of the US-Israeli attack on Iran. However, we have long condemned the destabilizing steps of the Iranian regime, its systematic violation of human rights, support for terrorism, and support for Russian aggression against Ukraine. I hope that it will now be possible to prevent further escalation of the situation and reduce tensions in the region.” wrote Pavel.
According to him, the priority of the Czech Republic is to ensure the safety of Czech citizens and diplomats who are in Iran. He thanked everyone involved in this. The United States, along with Israel, launched coordinated air and missile strikes on Iranian military and strategic targets on Saturday, including the headquarters of the Iranian leadership in Tehran.
Explosions related to the coordinated military offensive by the US and Israel were also reported in other Iranian cities. In response to the strikes by the United States and Israel, Iran has already attacked American military facilities in Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates. Saudi Arabia also confirmed the Iranian attacks.
