Russian President Vladimir Putin has strongly condemned Israel's recent military actions against Iran, describing them as violations of international law and a threat to regional stability. In a statement released on June 13, 2025, the Kremlin emphasized that unprovoked strikes on a sovereign UN member state, particularly targeting civilian areas and nuclear infrastructure, are categorically unacceptable.
Putin's condemnation was reiterated in a phone conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, where he expressed Russia's readiness to mediate and prevent further escalation. Additionally, in a call with U.S. President Donald Trump, Putin highlighted the risks of an uncontrollable escalation and underscored the importance of diplomatic efforts to address the crisis.
The international community has largely echoed these concerns. The United Nations and various human rights organizations have condemned Israel's attacks on civilian infrastructure in Iran, with some labeling them as potential war crimes. European countries, including Germany and France, have called for restraint and a halt to hostilities.
In response to the escalating conflict, Russia has proposed reviving its earlier plan to store Iran's enriched uranium on Russian territory, aiming to convert it into civilian reactor fuel and reduce tensions. However, the outbreak of hostilities has complicated the situation, and the feasibility of this proposal remains uncertain.
The situation continues to develop, with significant casualties reported on both sides and widespread international concern over the potential for further escalation.
