NATO Secretary General Defends Allies, Says US Attack on Iran Does Not Violate International Law
NATO Secretary General, Mark Rutte, on Monday openly defended the United States' military attack on Iran. He stated that the action does not violate international law.
This controversial statement was made at a press conference during the NATO summit in The Hague, Netherlands. "The US attack on Iran is not a violation of international law at all," Rutte asserted, also adding that NATO allies have long agreed that Iran should not develop nuclear weapons.
NATO's stance provides political justification from the Western defense bloc for Washington's actions and shows a sharp division with other international parties. Earlier, the UN Secretary General, China, and Russia had condemned the attack as a serious violation of the UN Charter and the sovereignty of a nation. This NATO statement reaffirms the alliance's solidarity with the US amid a heating global crisis.#NATOSummit $BTC
