Dushanbe, March 6 (Xinhua) – US military action against Iran has devalued international law and could have serious consequences for the international and regional situation, Sputnik reported on Friday, citing Tajik regional expert Kosym Bekmuhammad.
According to him, under the guise of negotiations, Washington tried to create the impression that it had not initially sought war, but was allegedly forced to resort to military action due to Tehran's position.
The expert noted that some countries, primarily the United States, which actively proclaim the protection of human rights, democracy, and freedom, simultaneously violate generally accepted norms of the international order, including the prohibition of the use of force, respect for state sovereignty, and the equality of states. "The United States and the West have played the greatest role in devaluing international law," he noted.
The expert also stated that US behavior demonstrates that Washington has replaced dialogue with force. This exacerbates international and regional instability, fuels an arms race, and creates conditions for the strengthening of extremist and terrorist groups.
