Canada is joining more than two dozen other countries in denouncing Iran’s apparent involvement in a planned attack on an air base in England. The signatories, which include the United States, France, Germany and Australia, issued a joint statement saying they “condemn in the strongest terms Iran’s use of violent attacks.”
The statement follows comments from British Prime Minister Andy Burnham, who said Monday that a suspected terror plot at a U.S.-run military air base last month was “almost certainly” directed by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard. The base in question is RAF Fairford, which has been used by American bombers to strike Iran in the ongoing war.
The countries that signed the joint statement declared that any attempt by Iran to threaten individuals on their territory through proxies is unacceptable. The group of signatories represents a broad coalition of Western and allied nations responding to the alleged threat.
This diplomatic move highlights growing international concern over Iran’s alleged use of proxy networks to target military infrastructure in allied nations. The condemnation underscores the severity with which these countries view threats to their sovereignty and the safety of personnel stationed at bases like RAF Fairford, particularly amidst ongoing military conflicts involving U.S. forces.
