Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi has emerged as the final high-ranking official expressing dissent regarding U.S. President Trump’s declaration of intent to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities. He asserts that Tehran will retaliate with a measured response should such an assault occur.
Gharibabadi, speaking through Iran’s Mehr news agency, emphasized that threats directed at Iran’s “power plants and crucial infrastructure” represent attacks on civilian assets. He firmly believes these objects should not be targets during armed conflict. The deputy minister highlighted the UN Security Council’s inability to effectively address aggression and rectify violations, arguing that this failure underscores Iran’s inherent right to self-defense.
Consequently, any attack on Iran’s vital infrastructure would inevitably trigger a proportionate response. Iran is prepared to respond decisively to any such action. Gharibabadi’s statement underscores the nation’s resolve to protect its assets and maintain its security.
The situation remains tense, with Iran signaling its readiness to defend itself against perceived threats.
