US Aggression on Iran Suffered ‘Crushing Defeat’: Moscow
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova on Wednesday said that the approach of a “one-track, aggressive, unprovoked attack” against Iran suffered a “crushing defeat” after US President Donald Trump announced a two-week ceasefire between Washington and Tehran.
“All the statements that were made about ... being more aggressive, being more offensive, writing more on social media and ‘victory’ — it's just around the corner. Once again, this position has suffered a crushing defeat. So has the approach of such a one-track, aggressive, unprovoked attack,” Zakharova told Sputnik Radio in an interview.
Zakharova further said Russia has stated the necessity of immediately stopping the aggression against Iran and commence a “real political and diplomatic settlement,” as well as the lack of a military solution to the situation, from the very beginning.
