“Pandora rifle”: Kremlin warns USA of the regiments in Iran

Russia points to Israel and the USA. Israel’s Minister of Defense declares the Iranian head as a war goal. All developments in the news blog.

Russia has warned Israel and the United States about the fall of the government in Iran. A change of regime is “unacceptable” and the murder of the chief leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei would “open the pandora’s box,” said Kremlin spokesman Dmitri Peskow to the broadcaster Sky News.

Previously, US President Donald Trump had indicated that the option of the murder of the Iranian senior leader Khamenei was still in the room, but said that the United States “had” no plans for the time being.

Iran is one of the most important supporters in Russia in his invasion in Ukraine, for example through drone technology. It was only in March that Iran, Russia and China started a maneuver in the Persian Golf. Both countries help Tehran to avoid UN sanctions, so China is one of the most important buyers of Iranian oil. In return, the country delivers ammonium perchlorate for rocket fuel or components for drone production in Iran.

According to Chancellor’s head Thorsten Frei, the United States intervention in the conflict between Israel and Iran. You can see different signs of compacting, said Frei in the ARD. Nevertheless, it is speculation on how the USA will behave. US President Donald Trump has recently declared that he will decide on the further procedure of the United States in the next two weeks.

Chancellor’s head of the Chancellor emphasized the importance of diplomacy in the conflict before the upcoming Iran talks, among other things, by Foreign Minister Johann WadePhul in Geneva. “It is extremely important that you try to actually take up and develop any thread of conversation that is available.” With a view to the chances of success, WadePhul is reluctant: The fact is that Iran has continued to work on the development of a nuclear weapon in the past ten years.

The Israeli Air Force has again attacked dozens of goals in Iran. The army announced that more than 60 fighter planes had attacked military facilities for the production of rockets and the headquarters of a research institution of the Iranian “Nuclear Project Projekt” in the morning.

In the area of ​​the capital Tehran, several industrial plants were met for rocket production, it said. The area served as a central industrial center of the Iranian Ministry of Defense. In addition, an attachment to the production of an important component for the Iranian nuclear weapons program was targeted. At the same time, a total of four drones fired by Iran during the night were intercepted. The information could initially not be checked independently.

Federal Foreign Minister Johann WadePhul calls Iran more seriousness before today’s European negotiations on the Iranian nuclear program. “If there is a serious and transparent willingness of Iran to forego it, there is a real chance to prevent another escalation of this war, and every conversation makes sense,” said Wadephul in the MDR podcast “The Interview”.

The CDU politician WadePhul and the Foreign Minister of France and Great Britain want to negotiate with the Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghtschi in the Swiss Geneva. However, previous discussions with Tehran on the nuclear program were unsuccessful. “Ultimately, we did not see the seriousness on the side of Iran and instead an enrichment program, which goes far beyond sensible civilian use,” said the Foreign Minister.
