EU diplomacy chief calls for de-escalaton of conflict between Israel and Iran

Josep Borrell

The head of European diplomacy, Josep Borrell, calls to do everything possible to de-escalate the conflict between Israel and Iran against the background of Tehran's powerful strikes.

Borrell commented on the events in the Middle East

As the diplomat emphasized, he predicts Tel Aviv's response to a large-scale air attack by Iran but hopes that it will not cause further escalation.

We are standing on the edge of an abyss and must move away from it. We have to hit the brakes and engage in reverse gear.

The EU's high representative for foreign and security policy draws attention to the fact that there is a "deep split" in Israel's right-wing government coalition between hard-liners seeking retribution and a "more moderate and sensible" faction.

As Josep Borrell argues, the latter group favors retaliation "but in a way that avoids a response to a response."

According to him, official Brussels should have better relations with Iran despite the sanctions that the European Union has imposed against the Islamic Republic due to its nuclear energy program and other issues.

It is in everyone's interest that Iran does not become a nuclear power and that there is peace in the Middle East, added Josep Borrell.

What is known about Iran's attacks on Israel

On the night of April 13-14, Iran and its henchmen in the region launched a massive airstrike on the territory of Israel with attack drones and missiles.

Israel managed to repel these attacks successfully.

Official Tehran has made it clear that it considers its retaliation against Israel complete but is ready to react harshly in the event of a retaliatory action.

According to journalists, American leader Joe Biden convinced the Israeli prime minister to refrain from retaliating against Iran and warned that the United States would not support these actions.

Hungarian leader Viktor Orban continues to rage over Ukraine's decision to cut off Russian gas transit, and has even threatened that Budapest could retaliate.

Points of attention

  • A Hungarian politician makes cynical accusations against Ukraine and spreads pro-Russian narratives.
  • Orban and Fico are trying to discredit the Ukrainian leadership and justify their pro-Kremlin views.

Orban continues to cynically accuse Ukraine

The Prime Minister of Hungary made a new statement on this matter at a press conference during a visit to Bratislava.

Orban began to cynically lie that official Kyiv had not only stopped gas transit through Ukrainian territory, but was also allegedly refusing to negotiate.

Moreover, the odious politician added that this step is a threat to Hungary, Slovakia, and the entire region.

Kyiv is no longer in the saddle so securely to afford this. If they remain aggressive and hostile, they will lose. We will eventually get angry and fight back.

Against this background, the pro-Russian politician did not forget to remind that he does not support Ukraine's membership in the European Union.

He cynically lies that this will somehow destroy the economy of Hungary and NATO, as it will lead to a war between the Alliance and Russia.

Fico also continues to promote pro-Russian narratives

Recently, Slovak leader Robert Fico baselessly began criticizing Ukraine and calling it an unreliable partner.

In addition, he lied that the head of state, Volodymyr Zelensky, was traveling around Europe, "begging" and "blackmailing others."

The pro-Putin politician did not stop there and added that Russia has always been a reliable partner when it comes to energy supplies.

"I remember the situation in 2009, when I was in Ukraine, when I asked Ukrainian Prime Minister Tymoshenko to give us some gas from the reservoirs they have in the western part of Ukraine, I got the answer that they sent me to hell. These are typical Ukrainians," Fico complained.

They kissed Zelensky's ring. Fico spoke about a coup d'état

Fico outraged by the actions of Slovak oppositionists

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico is furious about a recent visit by members of the Slovak parliament to Kyiv, which he says was a "gesture of flattery" toward Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky.

Points of attention

  • Fico complains that the Slovak opposition has sided with Ukraine and Volodymyr Zelensky.
  • The Prime Minister of Slovakia supports the idea of the country's possible exit from the EU and NATO.

Fico outraged by the actions of Slovak oppositionists

According to the Slovak leader, opposition forces are allegedly preparing for a coup d'état.

Fico also added that his team "will be ready for anything, especially a possible Maidan."

He drew attention to the fact that Slovak deputies who arrived in Kyiv on January 17 "kissed Zelensky's ring" and allegedly promised him support for Ukraine's membership in NATO if they came to power.

Moreover, Robert Fico began to fantasize that the opposition had promised that Bratislava would join in sending a contingent of Western troops to Ukraine.

The government I lead will never support Ukraine's membership in NATO, because it will only lead to World War III. The government will also never propose sending troops to Ukraine to direct their weapons against the Russian Federation.

Fico believes that they want to make him a servant of Ukraine

According to the Slovak leader, he intends to "respond" to the suspension of Russian gas transit through Ukraine.

Against this background, the scandalous politician threatened to veto further EU aid to Kyiv.

Robert Fico is the Slovak Prime Minister, not a Ukrainian servant, the Prime Minister pompously declared.

In addition, the politician supported the position of his party member, Deputy Speaker of Parliament Tibor Gaspar, who allowed the possibility of Slovakia's exit from the EU.

"I absolutely agree with him that Slovakia must prepare for all possible crisis situations that the EU could find itself in in a very short period of time," the Slovak leader added.
