Free Interpretation of Right to Self-Defense Leads to Chaos, Russian FM Says Amid Iran-Israel Escalation
Only "the biggest cynics" support Israeli aggression against Iran, while others claim Israel has the right to "self-defense," Sergey Lavrov noted.
Yet, it remains unclear exactly "what Israel is defending itself from," the Russian top diplomat pointed out.
"If each country is allowed to interpret the right to self-defense, enshrined in the UN Charter, in such a way that 'I will decide for myself when I may apply my right, and I do not want to look at the UN Charter,' then, of course, there will be no world order," he told a Russian journalist.
