Russia threatens strikes on Europe after Iran attack

Solovyov's geography must be pretty weak. I know Israel is in Eurovision (and from what I remember, many states are boycotting the event because of that), but it is not a part of Europe. Last I checked, neither is the US.

Anyone here has his address? I want to send him a map...

We will see what future brings, this war will ends with more civilians dead and more tax payers foundings, so good timing.

After what I can read, this was a wanted war from Israel and Saudi, and the nuclear threat was not yet real.

One speaker suggested that US President Donald Trump had “unwittingly created political and psychological opportunities” for Moscow, claiming he had “untied our hands” for Russia’s commander-in-chief to act in the interests of national security.

Yes, agree with that, same goes for China BTW.

But no, Russia will not escalate.

In the meantime China can sit back and watch, while countries they normally wouldn't connect to on a higher level and cooperation, join them, make sound deals and future promises for stability.

The Wild West have failed. The same mentality that built and formed countries for thousands of years is failing. And could had drawn parallels to when Islam dominated large parts of Europe, but it will be a lang straw to pull here at this forum. The only way to understand those times, is by searching, reading understand the time being, and see the lines for yourself. Islam was one time driven by science and stability.

Today, China represent that, seeing the big lines they represent today.

Solovyov went further, saying: “The only language Europe understands is the language of force … It’s clearly time to strike their little house,” in remarks widely interpreted as a threat directed at European countries.

Israel and the USA attack Iran and the USSR Russia uses the moment to threaten ..... wait for it ..... Europe. Bros Luv Bros.

China will also not sit down doing nothing.

They have lost now more than 50% of their oil supply.First Venezuela and Now Iran.

Trump has laid the base for the start of WWIII

Yes because Europe is easier to attack than the US, and the US will get involved any way.Better stock up on Spam and other tinned foods

Oh well, stopping wars and craving the nobel prize got boring very quickly. Time to change tack.

I think the headline here is a bit over dramatic!

As I interpret this, the official Russian government statement was a condemnation of the strikes on Iran, but it didn’t actually threaten Europe directly.

The more extreme language, like talk of strikes against NATO countries, seems to be coming from state media personalities and private citizens online, not from the Kremlin itself.

It’s worth keeping that distinction clear.

All governments tend to use strong diplomatic language to signal displeasure, but actual threats of military action usually come through official channels.

In this news item, the headline makes it sound like Moscow itself is promising attacks on Europe, when in reality it’s more a mix of condemnation plus heated rhetoric from commentators.

Now the "unintended consequences" are beginning.

The craven subjection to the interests and expansion of Israel has been a disaster for the USA.

Wait. I thought Israel was in the United States. Or was that the US in Israel. I get mixed up.

Iran had very clever people, then oil became the centre of attraction and BP pushed there way in backed by the USA now they are trying to overthrow Iran again, after Venezuela, Mexico is in the USA 's sights,they want Greenland,they are blowing up supposed drugs boats, escalating the risk of ww3,I'm in NZ for a few weeks now and people here are very worried about this madness.

Food is through the roof here and petrol is going to go up again.

I went to the supermarket today and walked out with half a bag of food, 81 dollars. People are really worried and are calling Trump and Netanyahu mad, idiots.

I heard on the radio today that an analyst has stated that China has a 7 month supply of oil sitting in their reserves.

When asked why such the large stockpile, she said it's because they are on a war footing.

China is also a large buyer from Canada and I suspect they are going to want more from what is seen as a stable country

Says who ?

That was a good one 👉👏

If China's oils supply is threatened or disrupted any further they just might decide to do something, what I don't know.

Somehow I don't think it will be militarily they are more pragmatic and sensible planning more for the long term more likely to go for economic means.

Unless Trump gets so tied up with Iran its consequences, and commits even more resources to it that China feels Taiwan is theirs for the taking and there is not much the US could do to stop it.

The US places a great deal of importance on its nuclear powered carriers that don't need refuelling. whist that is true the crew (around 5000 I believe do need refuelling) and so do the planes escort ships supply ships and personnel need a constant supply of fuel and food. All of which makes the nuclear carriers vulnerable. All metal ships can be sunk even nuclear ones.

Russia is very unlikely to attack a NATO country in Europe though it may very well participate in a much wider conflict if that were to happen, and if it does all the blame will be laid firmly at the feet of the White House and the imbecile that inhabits it.

Things are not going well in Russia, Vlad needs an excuse to deflect domestic attention away from his problems (something like Trump and Epstein) - let us attack Europe!!

Canada's value as an oil and gas supplier to China is still relatively small and is about the same as the USA . In 2024 Canada supplied 1.8% of the PRC's crude oil imports. Russia was 22% and the Middle east region supplied 64% of the PRC's crude oil imports. I don't think the PRC will accept an interruption in oil supplies longer than a month.

I think China is going to be more worried about the voluntary closure of the Suez Canal. A reported 60% of China's exports to the EU go through the canal. Going by the disruption during Covid and the blockage following the Evergreen cargo ship grounding, a lengthy closure is going to disrupt supply chains for the EU and hurt Chinese trade. 12% of the world's cargo and 30% of its container ships transit the Suez canal. I was unaware of how big Chinese exports are to the Gulf Arab countries. With the Strait of Hormuz closed, there will be no Chinese exports. I expect that the Chinese won't be helping Iran if it interferes with its US $257 annual exports to the Gulf.

...and the ante goes up!

Agreed... but not just for the USA.

It's a disaster for the whole world to one extent or another.

The only possible upside to this situation is that it might be the final nail in the coffin of Israeli influence - some might say dominance - of US foreign policy.

Not a chance.

Israeli power is too deeply entrenched in government and media, not to mention well-funded pressure groups that promote the Zionist agenda 24/7.

Another catastrophic war for Israel isn't going to put an end to that.

Only with a fundamental change in American attitudes will there be a beginning toward anything like a return to sanity in US foreign policy.
