Antonio Tajani: "An attack, the Iranian one, which must be absolutely condemned. It came in response to an attack by Israel against a consular office in Damascus, which we condemned at the EU level" "Now I hope that there is no escalation.
Israel from a military point of view he won, he repelled the offensive but now we must prevent the conflict from spreading further and further also," Tajani said at a forum at ANSA in Milan. "We have tension not only in Gaza but also in the Red Sea", Tajani told the Italian news agency ANSA, adding that he hoped there would be no escalation in the conflict with Iran. The EU has condemned the attack as an act of aggression against the Syrian government, as well as the Israeli attack on the Syrian consulate in Damascus. The attack has been condemned by the European Union, the UN and the Arab League, Tajani added. He also said that the attack was a violation of international law, and that the EU had condemned it as such.
