BAKU, Azerbaijan, February 28. The UN Security
Council must hold an emergency meeting to stop the Israeli and U.S.
military air strikes on Iran, the spokesperson for the Iranian
Foreign Ministry, Esmaeil Baghaei, told local media, Trend reports.
According to him, the Iranian Armed Forces will defend the
country with all their might. This war is a war against Iran.
"If the international community does not react to the military
attacks on Iran, it will be the beginning of the end of all
international organizations," he emphasized.
Following the second round of nuclear talks between Washington
and Tehran on February 17, which ended without progress, the U.S.
increased its presence in areas near Iran, deploying over 150
aircraft to bases in Europe and the Middle East.
The escalation follows the 3rd round of nuclear talks between
Iran and the United States in Geneva on February 26. Held under the
administration of U.S. President Donald Trump, the negotiations
were seen as a last opportunity for a diplomatic resolution.
However, no agreements were reached, as Tehran refused to halt
uranium enrichment, dismantle its nuclear facilities, or accept
indefinite restrictions on its nuclear program. Israel launched its
airstrikes shortly afterward, with Katz emphasizing that the
operations were preemptive.
