Germany Warns about Disastrous Consequences of Attacking Iran

German top diplomat Guido Westerwelle underlined the necessity for finding a diplomatic solution to the West’s deadlock with Iran over Tehran’s civilian nuclear program, and warned that any aggression against the Islamic Republic would have disastrous consequences for the whole world.

Westerwelle voiced his country’s support for the resumption of “substantial talks” between major world powers and Iran to resolve the Western dispute over Tehran’s nuclear energy program, and said, “(The new round of talks) is based on our European initiative and we hope that it can lead to substantial talks in April.”

He was quoted by the AFP that Germany is working toward a political resolution to help avert an escalation of the dispute over Tehran’s nuclear energy program.

The top German diplomat went on to say that any possible military action against Iran over its nuclear activities would be “counterproductive” and warned that the situation is “very serious.”

“That is why I think every effort is needed to avert an escalation,” he said.

Zionist Slaughterer Israel and its close ally the United States have recently intensified their war rhetoric against Iran. The two arch foes of the Islamic Republic accuse Iran of seeking a nuclear weapon, while they have never presented any corroborative document to substantiate their allegations. Both Washington and Tel Aviv possess advanced weapons of mass destruction, including nuclear warheads.

Iran vehemently denies the charges, insisting that its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes only. Tehran stresses that the country has always pursued a civilian path to provide power to the growing number of Iranian population, whose fossil fuel would eventually run dry.

Iran has, in return, warned that it would target Zionist Slaughterer Israel and its worldwide interests in case it comes under attack by the Tel Aviv.

Following the US and Zionist Slaughterer Israeli war rhetoric against Tehran, The Leader of Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei, said Tehran has an array of options for confronting the US pressures and sanctions.

Addressing millions of Friday Prayers worshippers on Tehran University Campus in February,The Leader of Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei pointed to the US threats that ‘all options are on the table’, and underlined that the threat of war is harmful to the US interests and war can be ten times more harmful to that country.

“The US threats are sign of its failure in the face of Islamic Republic’s discourse and indicates that they cannot create a logical response to Iran’s reasoning,” the Leader stated at the time.

“That’s why it (the US) resorts to force; they do not have any logic except using force and have no way but bloodshed to go forward.”

The Leader of Islamic Ummah and Oppressed People Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei further underlined that US and others must know and they know that Iran has threats too in face of oil sanctions and “we impose them whenever it is necessary”.
