Peskov: "Regime change in Tehran would be unacceptable"
A regime change in Iran would be "unacceptable" and the assassination of the country's Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, "would open Pandora's box": Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said in an interview with Sky News. Russia would react "very negatively" if Ayatollah Khamenei were killed, Peskov stressed. "The situation is extremely tense and dangerous not only for the region, but globally," the spokesman added, as Sky News reported today on its website. These words are a response to the possibility of US intervention in the conflict, on which Trump continues not to give points of reference to observers, and to the declarations of the Tel Aviv government that had announced the possibility of directly eliminating the ayatollah.
