JUST IN: IRAN FM ARAGHCHI:
“If international law is disregarded whenever the interests of major powers dictate, one can no longer speak of the rule of law.
If human rights are an inherent right for some nations and a conditional privilege for others, they can no longer be called universal.”

#NATO is ready for a potential Russian false flag attack, says the alliance’s military chief, Admiral Giuseppe Cavo Dragone.
– His remarks follow multiple warnings by leaders across #Europe in recent days about a growing risk of Russian escalation.
– “We have 4,000 pages of plans for the eastern flank, and this goes from the minimal crisis or interference on our soil with Article 5 and on and on.”
– “A direct attack is not on the agenda. But a direct attack is an Article 5 request immediately, basically.”
– “For hybrid activities, there is not an automatic Article 5 request because, I mean, they usually stay under the threshold.”
– “The alliance is ready. The structure is ready. The soldiers, the system, the weapons are ready.”
– “In case of an attack, I can tell you that today they have much more to lose than to gain, that’s for sure, and that’s deterrence.”
