Russia has warned of serious consequences if Donald Trump supports a military attack on Iran. As tensions grow in the Middle East, Moscow urges the U.S. to avoid triggering a wider conflict.
Russia Issues Strong Warning to U.S. Over Possible Iran Strike Backed by Trump
Tensions in the Middle East are heating up again as former U.S. President Donald Trump reportedly said he would approve a military strike on Iran if given a solid plan. The statement came after missile exchanges between Iran and Israel, sparking new fears of a wider conflict.
Trump, known for his unpredictable decision-making, made it clear that “all options remain on the table.” He also said, “Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. I’ve had it.” These remarks followed the June 17th sighting of the U.S. Air Force’s so-called “Doomsday Jet,” a signal that the situation could escalate quickly.
Russia Warns of Catastrophic Outcomes
Russia, a long-time ally of Iran, did not hold back. Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov strongly criticized the idea of U.S. military action, warning it could lead to a “nuclear catastrophe” and cause massive instability across the region.
Moscow has urged Washington to stay out of the Iran-Israel conflict. Russian President Vladimir Putin also commented, saying that Russia does not want direct involvement but supports a peaceful, diplomatic solution.
Iran Responds to U.S. Threats
Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, responded by saying that the cost of U.S. interference would be high. “The Iranian people will not surrender,” he said, underlining the country’s defiance.
What’s Next for the Region?
With so many powerful players involved—Iran, Israel, the U.S., and Russia—any move could quickly spiral out of control. Experts warn that even a limited military strike could trigger global economic shocks, oil price hikes, and even cyber warfare.
As the world watches closely, one thing is certain: the stakes are high, and the next steps could shape the future of the Middle East—and beyond.
