On Cam: Putin SIDES With Iran | IAEA, China echo support With Iran On Nukes | U.S Under Pressure

In a major development, Russian President Vladimir Putin has openly sided with Iran, stating there's no evidence that Tehran is pursuing nuclear weapons. Citing both Russia's own findings and the IAEA's assessment, Putin declared Israel had been told this repeatedly. Meanwhile, China has urged Israel not to abuse its military power, signaling growing international resistance to further escalation. IAEA Chief Rafael Grossi confirmed there's no indication of weaponisation. These mounting global voices are expected to complicate Trump's path if he plans a direct US strike on Iran amid rising conflict. #PutinIranSupport #IranNuclearClaims #IAEAReport #RussiaIsraelTensions #ChinaOnIsrael #MiddleEastConflict #TrumpIranDecision #IranIsraelWar #PutinBacksIran #NuclearTensions #TehranUnderFire #RussiaNuclearStance #GeopoliticalCrisis #IsraelIranNews #USIsraelAlliance #IranSanctions #ChinaMiddleEast #PeacePushFails #IranConflictEscalates #IAEAClarification Also Read Pakistan's Delicate Diplomatic Balancing Act Amid Iran-Israel Conflict | Analysis :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/pakistans-delicate-diplomatic-balancing-act-amid-iran-israel-conflict-analysis-7779185.html?ref=DMDesc Sonia Gandhi Slams Centre’s Silence On Israel-Iran Conflict: 'History Reminds Us That...' :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/sonia-gandhi-slams-centre-s-silence-on-israel-iran-conflict-history-reminds-us-that-7779139.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Says Gabbard Was 'Wrong' About Iran; Israeli Strikes Could Be 'Very Hard To Stop' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-says-gabbard-was-wrong-about-iran-israeli-strikes-could-be-very-hard-to-stop-7778805.html?ref=DMDesc ~GR.125~HT.408~

India Pakistan Ceasefire: Shashi Tharoor DEFENDS Peace, Hits Back At Posts Comparing 1971 To 2025

As the Congress invoked Indira Gandhi's 1971 Bangladesh war leadership to criticize the Modi government’s ceasefire deal with Pakistan, senior leader Shashi Tharoor urged a clear-eyed view of history. Calling the 2025 scenario "entirely different," Tharoor said India needs peace, not endless escalation. He emphasized the importance of preventing protracted conflict, arguing that while retaliation against terrorism is necessary, risking national stability without clear goals is not. The comments mark a sharp political and strategic contrast to current government narratives amid rising border tensions. #ShashiTharoor #IndiaPakistan #Ceasefire #IndiraGandhi #1971War #PeaceOverWar #Congress #ModiGovt #BangladeshLiberation #TharoorSpeaks #ANI #PahalgamAttack #IndiaPolitics #TharoorOnPeace #BorderTensions #PakistanCeasefire #TerrorResponse #IndiaNews #CurrentAffairs #NationalSecurity #IndiaToday #WarAndPeace #TharoorInterview #PeaceTalks #KashmirIssue #NoToWar #SouthAsia #DiplomacyMatters #IndiaFirst #PoliticalDebate #ModiVsCongress Also Read Shashi Tharoor Slams Pakistan’s Ceasefire Breach With Shayari: 'Uski Fitrat Hai Mukar Jaane Ki...' :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/shashi-tharoor-slams-pakistan-s-ceasefire-breach-with-shayari-uski-fitrat-hai-mukar-jaane-ki-4150161.html?ref=DMDesc Tharoor Celebrates Evolution of Constitution Defenders from Historical Rejectors :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/descendants-of-constitution-rejectors-defending-it-tharoor-011-4149997.html?ref=DMDesc India-Pakistan Ceasefire: Congress Seeks PM-Chaired All-Party Meet, Leaders Hail Indira Gandhi's Era :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-pakistan-ceasefire-congress-seeks-pm-chaired-all-party-meet-leaders-hail-indira-gandhis-era-4149819.html?ref=DMDesc
