Russia has condemned the recent U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, marking a significant increase in geopolitical tensions. On Monday, the Kremlin expressed its deep regret over the U.S. actions, which have sparked widespread criticism.
According to the Kremlin's spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, the American military intervention has aggravated the situation by drawing more participants into the ongoing conflict. Peskov highlighted concerns about a potential new phase of escalation between the involved nations.
Such measures, deemed as provocative by Russia, are likely to further strain diplomatic relations and disrupt efforts aimed at maintaining stability in the region, experts suggest.
