Possible US Attack on Iran: UAE Also Begins Preparations, Plans for a New Military Operation Are Concerning: Russia

United Arab Emirates Energy Minister Suhail Al Mazrouei has warned that if the United States launches another military attack on Iran, the UAE will be better prepared than ever to deal with any possible scenario. Speaking at an international conference in Abu Dhabi, he said the country had strengthened its preparations by learning from past mistakes. Tensions in the region have increased following signals from U.S. President Donald Trump about possible renewed military action against Iran and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s desire for a joint attack. Iran, which has previously targeted U.S. military bases and interests in the UAE, has also issued warnings of possible retaliation in the event of further attacks.

Meanwhile, Russia’s Foreign Ministry has expressed serious concern over plans and threats of a new military operation against Iran, saying that those considering an attack should reconsider their decision. According to the spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry, no military action can weaken the determination of the Iranian people, who remain fully committed to defending their sovereignty, territorial integrity and independence. The Russian Foreign Ministry further warned that continued threats and military preparations aimed at pushing Iran into another war represent an extremely dangerous and alarming trend for regional and international peace.
