Russia warns U.S. on Iran moves
UPI
Thursday, February 22, 2007
Russia's foreign minister Wednesday warned the United States not to
take military action against Iran.
"The Russian foreign minister said Wednesday U.S.-led multinational
foreign forces in Iraq must not conduct military operations outside
the country, including against Iran," the RIA Novosti news agency
reported.
"The multinational force in Iraq should abide strictly by the UN
Security Council's mandate, which does not provide for any operations
outside the country," Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told the Lebanese
magazine Al-Watan Al-Arabi in an interview.
"The escalation of the conflict and its possible spread beyond the
Iraqi borders will inevitably result in catastrophic consequences and
not for the Middle East alone," Lavrov said according to the report.
"I believe Washington understands this."
Lavrov told Al-Watan Al-Arabi that a timetable needed to be drawn up
for the coordinated and gradual evacuation of all foreign military
forces from Iraq. He said that was essential to bring stability to the
troubled Middle eastern nation.
"But at the same time we believe that U.S. Army detachments and their
coalition allies should not leave Iraq tomorrow," Lavrov said.
Lavrov also said that Iraq's own police, army and other security
forces needed to be increased in size and strength to prepare for the
pull out of U.S. and other forces.
"The long-standing confrontation between the U.S. and Iran
deteriorated further Jan. 11 when American servicemen burst into
Iran's mission in Erbil (Kurdistan) and detained five officials.
American troops disarmed guards and confiscated computers and
documents without providing any explanation," RIA Novosti noted.
The Russian news agency also noted that "earlier this month the United
States accused Iran of backing the insurgency and unrest in Iraq, and
suspects the Islamic Republic of pursuing a secret nuclear weapons
program."
