Biden Refuses to Back Israeli Attack on Iran's Nuclear Sites;Warns Israel of ‘Proportional Response’
In a significant diplomatic stance, U.S. President Joe Biden declared on Wednesday that he would not endorse any Israeli military actions aimed at dismantling Iran’s nuclear facilities.
This declaration comes in the wake of Israel's security cabinet agreeing to mount a “forceful response” to Iran's recent missile attacks on Israeli territory.
Biden’s remarks underscore a delicate balance in U.S.-Israeli relations, as he reiterated the importance of measured responses to escalating tensions in the Middle East.
Israel has vowed to retaliate against Iran following its missile barrage, which was described as an unprecedented attack.
Analysts suggest that Israel's response may involve strikes against Iran's nuclear or military sites, raising concerns about a broader conflict in the region.
While the U.S. maintains its support for Israel’s right to defend itself, Biden emphasised that any response should remain proportional and focused on avoiding further escalation.
