Even as the United States searches for ways to defend its allies, President Joe Biden said he opposes Israel firing retaliatory strikes on Iranian nuclear locations.
” All seven of us agree that they have a right to respond, but they should react proportionally”, Biden said, referring to Group of Seven friends.
For the first time since Iran launched a massive missile assault on Israel on Tuesday, Biden has publicly opposed hits. The government’s feedback likewise come after national security adviser Jake Sullivan said Tuesday that Iran had face” severe effects” for the attack.
” We are now going to look at what the correct following steps are to safe, first and foremost, British interests, and then to promote balance to the maximum amount possible as we go forwards”, Sullivan told reporters.
Sullivan did not specify what might come next, but he criticized the missile attacks as a” major increase.”

” We have made clear that there will be repercussions, serious effects”, he said. ” We will work with Israel to produce that the situation,” the statement read.
Israel was the target of Iran’s missile attack just days after Israeli forces killed Hezbollah president Hassan Nasrallah. The attacks were largely considered inadequate by U. S. authorities, who cited one human death so much.
