The aerial offensive launched by the United States against nuclear facilities in Iran caused a strong reaction from countries with dictatorships or far-left governments. The UN also joined this group.
The United Nations (UN) and the governments and regimes of Chile, Mexico, Venezuela, and Cuba expressed their condemnation of what they consider a "dangerous military escalation" in the Middle East, appealing to "international law" and respect for "global peace," something that Iran was not willing to achieve.
The UN Secretary-General, António Guterres, was one of those who spoke out publicly. In a message shared through his social media, he stated: "I am deeply alarmed by the use of force by the United States against Iran today. This is a dangerous escalation in an already strained region, and a direct threat to international peace and security."
However, he did not say anything about the Iranian terrorist regime's attempts to obtain a nuclear weapon with which to destroy Israel and murder millions of people.

Meanwhile, from Chile, communist president Gabriel Boric also spoke in favor of Iran. "Attacking nuclear plants is prohibited by international law. Chile condemns this United States attack," he wrote.
The president emphasized that "having power doesn't authorize its use in violation of the rules that we as humanity have established," in a clear defense of the Iranian nuclear program.
