The Iranian foreign ministry spokesman has expressed regret over the start of military actions and the escalation of hostilities in Ukraine, calling for the establishment of a ceasefire.

He said, “Unfortunately provocative moves by NATO spearheaded by the US have led to a situation which has pushed the Eurasian region on the verge of a big crisis.

He underlined that the Islamic Republic of Iran invites the two sides to stop the hostilities and establish a ceasefire for immediate talks in order to resolve the crisis through political means.
