World Leaders React to U.S. Strikes on Iranian Nuclear Sites
World leaders have reacted sharply after President Donald Trump announced that the United States conducted a “very successful attack” on three key Iranian nuclear facilities, including the heavily fortified Fordow (Fordo) site.
In a post on Truth Social, Trump declared the strikes a “HISTORIC MOMENT FOR THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, ISRAEL, AND THE WORLD,” urging Iran to “AGREE TO END THIS WAR.”
Iran responded defiantly. Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi condemned the attacks as “outrageous” and warned of “everlasting consequences.” In a statement on X, he described the U.S. action as “extremely dangerous, lawless and criminal behavior” that violates international law and the UN Charter.
“Each and every member of the UN must be alarmed,” Araghchi said. “In accordance with the UN Charter and its provisions allowing a legitimate response in self-defense, Iran reserves all options to defend its sovereignty, interests, and people.”
The strikes have triggered urgent diplomatic concerns globally, with many nations calling for restraint to prevent further escalation in the Middle East. As tensions rise, the international community watches closely for Iran’s next moves and potential broader fallout.
