Left parties condemn attack on Iran, point out timing of PM Modi's Israel visit

NEW DELHI: (Feb 28) Left parties on Saturday condemned the US and Israel for launching military attacks on Iran, calling them a violation of international law and a threat to global peace.

In a statement, the Politburo of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) said the attacks were carried out in “flagrant violation of Iran's national sovereignty, the UN Charter and all international treaties”.

The Left party alleged that the strikes were launched despite the ongoing negotiations with Iran, and accused the US of acting as a "belligerent bully" targeting sovereign countries at will.
