Iran BLASTS Germany For Aiding Israel’s War Crimes, Calls Merz Complicit In ‘Act Of Aggression’

Iran’s Foreign Ministry has launched a blistering verbal offensive against German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, accusing Berlin of directly supporting Israel’s “war of aggression” against the Islamic Republic. In a fiery statement posted online, senior Iranian official Esmaeil Baqaei slammed Merz for endorsing what he called “atrocity crimes” and “unprovoked armed attacks” by Israel, claiming it violated the UN Charter’s Article 2(4). Labeling Germany’s position as both “illegal” and “criminal,” Baqaei said Berlin’s support amounts to “complicity in aggression” and warned that Germany now bears international legal responsibility. The remarks come as Iran seeks to rally global opinion against Israel following strikes on its territory, and as Tehran accuses Western powers of shielding Israeli actions. Iran’s legal framing of Germany’s conduct could escalate diplomatic tensions and spark fierce debates at global forums including the UN and ICJ. #Iran #Germany #Israel #FriedrichMerz #UNCharter #WarCrimes #Tehran #Berlin #InternationalLaw #MiddleEast #Geopolitics #BreakingNews #IranIsrael #ChancellorMerz #IranForeignMinistry #Aggression #Complicity #WarOfAggression #UNViolation #NuclearTensions ~HT.318~ED.346~

Russia BLASTS UN Chief For Bias, Accuses Him Of Backing Kiev Regime And Distorting Facts | Russia-UN

Russia has launched a scathing attack on UN Secretary-General António Guterres, accusing him of political bias and acting as a mouthpiece for NATO and the “criminal Kyiv regime.” Moscow condemned Guterres' recent comments on alleged Russian missile and drone strikes that supposedly caused a power outage at the Russian-controlled Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant. Russia insists the real culprits were Ukrainian militants and blasted the IAEA for ignoring those attacks in its reports. The Russian Foreign Ministry said Guterres was spreading “fabricated lies” and violating the UN Charter by favoring one side. Moscow asserts that it ensures the plant's safety and only targets military sites, unlike Kyiv, which it accuses of systematic strikes on civilians. With accusations of double standards and a call to end disinformation, Russia warned that UN officials must return to neutrality or risk losing credibility on the global stage. #RussiaUNClash #GuterresCriticism #UNBias #ZaporizhzhyaNPP #UkraineCrisis #RussiaUkraineWar #IAEABias #KyivRegime #NATOBias #UNCharterViolation #RussiaCondemnsUN #NuclearPlantDebate #MoscowStrikesBack #UkraineTerrorismClaims #GuterresControversy #RussiaVsWest #UNUnderFire #DoubleStandards #WesternPropaganda #DisinformationBattle ~ED.420~HT.408~GR.125~
