Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Gennady Gatilov
Russia has once again warned Israel of the “catastrophic consequences” of a military attack against Iran over the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program.
“The scenario of military action against Iran would be catastrophic for the region and possibly the whole system of international relations,” Russia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Gennady Gatilov said on Wednesday.
“Therefore I hope Israel understands all these consequences … and they should also consider the consequences of such action for themselves,” the Russian official added.
Gatilov’s remarks came as Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Martin Dempsey said on Sunday that attacking Iran is “not prudent at this point” as it “would be destabilizing.”
