Nuclear Facilities Should Be Taken Out Of Middle East Conflict – Senior Russian Diplomat

Russia is concerned about “Israel”‘s signals regarding a possible retaliatory strike on Iran, which could target Iranian nuclear facilities, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov told Sputnik on Thursday, adding that it is unacceptable to even consider such scenarios.

“We see a reason for serious concern. In principle, it is clear that any escalation of the current conflict is fraught with grave consequences. I also want to say that nuclear facilities as such, in any case, should always be take out of any conflict,” Ryabkov said, adding that “the international community, including the IAEA and its leadership, needs to raise its voice, emphasizing the inadmissibility of even considering such scenarios.”
