The participation of European countries in the US-Israeli aggression against Iran will be regarded as an “act of war,” Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei stated, Gulf News wrote on March 3.
“It would be an act of war. Any such action against Iran would be regarded as aiding the aggressors. It would be considered an act of war against Iran,” the diplomat emphasized.
Baghaei said that Iran would respond to such actions by European leaders.
The day before, Emmanuel Macron, Friedrich Merz, and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, in a joint statement, warned Iran of retaliatory measures if it did not stop striking their allies in the Middle East.
