Owaisi's Strong Statement on US-Iran Tensions
Asaduddin Owaisi, the leader of AIMIM, has made significant remarks regarding the recent US attacks on three Iranian nuclear plants and the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran. He stated that such actions violate international law and the United Nations Charter. Owaisi expressed confidence that Iran will become a nuclear-capable nation within the next five years, suggesting that the country likely relocated its stockpile prior to the attacks. He emphasized that this situation does not serve as a deterrent and warned that many Arab nations might feel compelled to pursue nuclear capabilities.
Impact on Indian Nationals in the Region
Owaisi highlighted the presence of over 16 million Indians residing in the Gulf and Middle East regions. He cautioned that a potential war in these areas, which seems increasingly likely, could have dire consequences for Indian nationals living there. He pointed out that Indian investments in these Arab and Gulf nations are substantial, with a significant portion of foreign investments originating from this region. Furthermore, he criticized the narrative surrounding Iran's nuclear weapons, likening it to the unfounded claims made about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq.
Concerns Over US Support for Israel
Owaisi also raised questions about the implications of US actions for Pakistan, asking whether they would support Trump receiving a Nobel Peace Prize. He accused the US of aiding Netanyahu, who he claims is responsible for the massacre of Palestinians, particularly in Gaza, where he noted a humanitarian crisis is unfolding without concern from the US. He questioned whether Pakistan's military leadership had dined with the US President, suggesting that the truth behind these alliances is now being revealed.
