Russia, NATO Nations Tell Iran, Israel To 'Calm Down'; Blinken Makes Hectic Calls To Saudi & China

Russia, the U.S., UK and Germany have reached out to Iran and Israel both to exercise restraint after Tehran warned of an imminent attack on Tel Aviv's assets in anger over the Damascus strike on April 1 that destroyed the Iranian consulate building. After warning its citizens against travel in Middle East, Kremlin spokesperson said that all parties must exercise restraint to avoid destabilisation in the region. U.S. secretary of state dialled his counterparts in Saudi Arabia, Turkey and China, asking them to speak to Iran and tell it to not attack Israel. German and British foreign ministers held separate phone calls with their Iranian counterpart, Hossein Amirabdollahian, conveying the same. Meanwhile, Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu said that his country was ready for any attack from Iran. Iran is expected to attack Israel within the next 48 hours. Watch for more details.

Would US listen to anyone not to retaliate if its own consulate and high ranking officers been make sacrificed ?

[vic]

How can you tell Iran not to escalate when they were the ones who got attacked?

[rhino]

These same western countries & NATO did not comdemn Israel when attacked Iranian embassy.. it's the biggest violation of intl laws by Israel. Now these same countries asking iran to restrain & avoid escalation is meaningless.

[theruralandurbantrekker]

This is a double standard of America and western countries

[coco-yvvq]

Israel needs to be held accountable period!
Iran has the right to defend itself, this is crazy

[damirkozlica]

Germany never misses an opportunity to be either directly or indirectly on the wrong side of history from Namibia to Gaza.

[talezaraza]

Any tell to Israel to restrain Gaza....all countries are hypocrites

[theruralandurbantrekker]

Iran has right to retaliate and defend itself

[ov]

Seriously? Don't you want to urge Israel to stop atrocities? Iran has the right to defend itself!

[umarrashidbhat]

Double standards. If Israel was justified in protecting itself and responding to the attacks on October 7th, why shouldn't Iran have the same right? Why are they being asked to show restraint? Why haven't any Western countries condemned Israel for bombing the Iranian embassy in Damascus?

[mengkham]

Why the US didn't have a max restraint when Iran proxy drone killed 3 American soldiers in Jordon a few months ago? Now they want Iran to have max restraint. Double standard by US

[farookanwar]

Why all nations asking iran to restraint, when Israel wantedly expanding war. On one side asking Iran to calm down on the other side from back doors supplying arms to Israel and giving green signal for bombing.If US is really concerned first US should Stop supplying arms and apply sanctions immediately. Why double standard policy.

[ThomasDransfeldt-wj]

So we from the Vest accept attacks on a sovereign nations embassy - and ask the attacked not to respond.
My god this is hypocracy on a whole new level.

[bel]

please tell me why, you all telling Iran to not escalate when its Israel murdering and escalating?? Please tell me why you ain't telling Genocide Israel to stop ??

[terrimcmanus]

Maybe Israel should be told to stop causing trouble

[Bilbodabumbaclaaat]

If America can't keep it's dog on a leash, then Iran will muzzle it.

[edrickelai]

Did anyone tell Israel not to start this in the first place?

[watermage]

So Israel gets to do as it wishes without consequence. So hypocritical

[T]

Dont blame it on Iran. Escalation is happening because you, US and Israel, haven't stopped on time.

[Gdb]

So iran got attacked on an embassy, & they tell them to not fight back? What a joke 😂
