European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen announced on Saturday that the European Union, in light of the situation in Iran, calls on all parties to exercise restraint, protect civilians, and respect international law.
Von der Leyen wrote on the "X" platform: "We call on all parties to exercise maximum restraint, protect civilians, and fully respect international law." She explained that developments in Iran are causing concern and that the European Union is in constant contact with its partners in the region, saying: "Developments in Iran are deeply concerning. We are in close contact with our partners in the region." Israel, in cooperation with America, launched an attack on Iran on Saturday morning, in a dangerous escalation following weeks of negotiations between American and Iranian officials regarding the Iranian nuclear program.
