Putin In Reflective Mood Muses On US-Iran Confrontation – OpEd
Friday, 20 June 2025 () The US President Donald Trump who sought President Vladimir Putin’s active help a fortnight ago to mediate in the negotiations over Iran nuclear issue has abruptly changed his mind. In retrospect, Putin probably showed undue enthusiasm no sooner than Trump sought his help, and even mooted a trip to Iran shortly to meet Iran’s...
Putin has issued a stark warning to the West: if Israel strikes Iran’s nuclear facilities, Russia may be forced to step in. The explosive statement hints at a possible alliance between Moscow and Tehran, fueling fears of a broader regional war—or even World War 3. As tensions soar in the Middle...
Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has launched a scathing attack on President Trump, accusing him of betrayal, deception, and war-mongering after U.S. airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities. Araghchi condemned the strikes as violations of international law and confirmed plans to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin for urgent consultations. Iran is calling for an emergency UN Security Council session, asserting its right to self-defense under Article 51 of the UN Charter. Watch fiery statements, diplomatic fallout, and what comes next.

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.

Following the U.S. missile strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities, senior Iranian lawmaker Abbas Golroo has invoked Article 10 of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), claiming Iran has the legal right to withdraw. The clause allows withdrawal if a state deems its supreme interests endangered. A petition in Mashhad is also urging Parliament to vote for Iran’s exit. With legal, public, and political momentum building, Iran’s departure from the treaty could reshape global diplomacy and deepen the nuclear standoff in the Middle East. A formal decision now looms over Tehran.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has issued a chilling ultimatum to Israel, demanding an “unconditional stop” to what he calls Israeli “terrorist aggression.” As the war enters its second week, Pezeshkian warned of a “harsher and more regrettable” retaliation if strikes continue. Iran has launched 15 missile waves under Operation True Promise III, hitting cities like Tel Aviv and Beersheba. Meanwhile, Israel has bombed nuclear sites and missile launchers deep inside Iran, with both sides rejecting de-escalation or surrender.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has issued a chilling warning to Israel, promising swift revenge after Israeli forces killed top Iranian generals and struck nuclear facilities in Operation Rising Lion. Pezeshkian declared Israel would "regret its actions" as Iran launched over 100 kamikaze drones. With explosions reported in Tehran, Iran’s air defenses are fully activated. A state of emergency grips Israel, and fears of a wider West Asia war—and potentially World War III—are mounting rapidly as tensions spiral out of control.
