(Brussels, June 13, 2025)– The decision of Israel to strike Iranian military installations and the leaders of its nuclear and terrorist networks is an act of defence against a rogue state which has for years openly threatened to destroy the Jewish state.
Iran is the primary sponsor of terrorism in the Middle East through its proxy organisations: Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis in Yemen. These terrorist groups have indiscriminately targeted Israelis and Jews across the world for years, culminating in the massacre of some 1,200 Israelis on 7 October 2023.
Moreover, the Iranian regime is now reaching the capacity to directly strike Israel with nuclear weapons, representing a clear existential threat to the Jewish State.
No people and no country can or should stand idly by when its sworn enemy is not only pledged to destroy its very existence but also possesses the nuclear capacity to carry out its threat.
We stand—as always—with our brothers and sisters in Israel during this difficult time.
