Thread: Russia warns of 'grave consequences' re: Iran

  1. Default Russia warns of 'grave consequences' re: Iran

    http://www.newser.com/article/d9sbah...sanctions.html

    Seems Russia has the right idea while the idiot hawks in America and Israel are frothing at the mouth at the prospect of attacking Iran. Just how much more destabilising, warmongering and regional factionalising do these idiots want to instigate before the planet erupts in another war?
    The more I hear from America and Israel on this matter, the more I'm convinced of their insanity.

    Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Russia is "seriously worried" about the prospect of a military action against Iran and is doing all it can to prevent it.

    "The consequences will be extremely grave," he said at a news conference. "It's not going to be an easy walk. It will trigger a chain reaction and I don't know where it will stop."

    Lavrov said an attack on Iran would send refugees streaming into its Caspian Sea neighbor Azerbaijan and further on to Russia.

    "But that is just one and not the main part of the problem," he said. "It's impossible to predict all the consequences. I have no doubt that it will add fuel to the smoldering confrontation between Sunnis and Shiites."

    The Sunni Arab states in the Gulf like Saudi Arabia are close U.S. allies, locked in decades-old rivalries with Iran's Shiite-led Islamic Republic.

    Lavrov also warned that sanctions on Iranian oil exports now being considered by the European Union could stymie efforts to solve the Iranian nuclear standoff through talks.

    "It has nothing to do with a desire to strengthen the nuclear nonproliferation," Lavrov said at a news conference. "It's aimed at stifling the Iranian economy and the population in an apparent hope to provoke discontent."

    Russia has walked a fine line on the Iranian nuclear crisis, mixing careful criticism of Iran, an important trading partner, with praise for some of its moves and calls for more talks.

    The EU is weighing whether to impose sanctions on buying Iranian oil, which is the source of more than 80 percent of Tehran's foreign revenue. The U.S. has already imposed new sanctions targeting Iran's central bank and, by extension, refiners' ability to buy and pay for crude.

    The sanctions are linked to Iran's disputed uranium enrichment program, which the U.S. and its Western allies suspect is aimed at developing nuclear weapons. Iran denies the charges, saying its program is aimed at civilian power generation and research.

    Moscow, which built Iran's first nuclear power plant, backed some of the previous U.N. sanctions against Iran, but in recent months has firmly rejected imposing any new sanctions and has called for more dialogue.

    Russia believes that "all conceivable sanctions already have been applied" and that new penalties could derail hopes for continuing six-way negotiations on the Iranian nuclear program, provoking Iranian intransigence, Lavrov said.

    He noted that the EU's consideration of new sanctions comes as Iran plans to host a delegation from the U.N. nuclear watchdog.

    "We believe that there is every chance to resume talks between the six powers and Iran, and we are concerned about obstacles being put to them," he said. "The sanctions could hardly help make the talks productive."

    Iran's official IRNA news agency said a senior security official, Ali Bagheri, headed to Moscow for talks with Lavrov and other Russian officials on Wednesday.

    Who knows when the Islamic Imperialist pedophile worshipers will tire of their blood lust, they have slaughtered their way across the planet for fifteen hundred years, but one thing is for sure the pedophile worshipers can not be allowed to obtain the bomb.

    LOL, the West is insane and Russia helping a rogue fundamentalist theocratic regime bent on wiping its neighbor off the map go nuclear is sane.

    No surprises here, the uber-Liberal/Islamonazi alliance sides with Russia and other rogue regimes, they always have after all.

    Yes and they have funded AQ and directly supported the 9-11 attacks and now they support the Taliban but because they have the bomb they can do this with impunity.

    The British Empire, the post WW2 US foreign policy, the Soviet union. They are in good company apparently.

    Though I don't want a war in my country, I know people don't want the current situation and are desperate for this regime to go. Iran's revolution was taken at the last days by the lowest class and religious group who were under Khomeini's influence, charmed by him. But the majority of Iranians are decent peace loving people. Iranians can't get their country back from this group because they don't hesitate to kill, torture and anything one can imagine to stay in power. search in youtube iran protest 2009 and see what happened.

    The best way to feel secure about Iran without starting a third world war is to help the opposition to bring back a reasonable secular and democrat state to it.

    Don't you think that stability and prosperity will undermine the current regime?
