Iran Reports Useful Talks With Oman on Strait of Hormuz<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe attack is an \u201cabsolutely illegal and unjustified\u201d act, a violation of international law and the United Nations Charter, and a dangerous action that \u201cwill not go unpunished,\u201d he stressed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In an interview with Sky News, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy acknowledged that his forces carried out long-range strikes against vessels allegedly used to transport military cargo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In an attempt to justify the Caspian Sea attack, he said that Iran has been transferring Shahed drones and new technologies to Russia since the first year of the war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Iranian Foreign Affairs Minister Abbas Araqchi denounced before the international community that Ukraine had acted at Israel\u2019s instigation in the attack on the Iranian ship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cZelensky has attacked an Iranian commercial vessel, killing a sailor. A blatant United Nations Charter violation done at Israel\u2019s behest to drag Europe into its war. In calls with EU High Representative Kallas and Russian Foreign Affairs Sergei Lavrov, made clear that what the freeloader in Kiev CANNOT GO UNANSWERED,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Monday, Dmitry Peskov, the spokesman for the Russian presidency, also condemned the Ukrainian attack and said that such aggressive actions \u201cin other times, would have been a casus belli.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIran is a sovereign country that is highly determined when it comes to defending its rights and has the corresponding capabilities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe will see how events develop, but the expansion of the geography of the conflict, of course, is not something we would like to see,\u201d Peskov said, recalling that Ukraine has already attacked other countries and the Nord Stream pipelines that carried Russian gas to Germany.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Iranian Foreign Affairs Ministry summoned Ukraine\u2019s charge d\u2019affaires in Tehran to protest the attack on a merchant vessel. In response to Iran\u2019s protests, Ukrainian Foreign Affairs Minister Andrii Sybiha also justified the incident by arguing that Iran has been supplying weapons to Russia since the beginning of the special military operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIran is in no position to portray itself as a victim, let alone justify its threats with absurd references to the United Nations Charter,\u201d Sybiha posted on social media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
