Moscow, June 18 (Adnkronos) – The nuclear threat in the Middle East is not hypothetical, but has a real and concrete dimension, which represents a danger both for the region and for the world. This was stated by the spokeswoman of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova, explaining, during an interview with Radio Sputnik, that "all this leads not only to an escalation, but to a direct threat for the region and the world, because attacks are being perpetrated against peaceful atomic or nuclear facilities.
The nuclear threat has a practical, not hypothetical, dimension." According to Zakharova, Iran "had, has and will have the right" to possess peaceful nuclear facilities, which are now under attack.
