Israel/Iran — Israeli strikes on Iran — Statement by the Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs Spokesperson

 



France is aware of the strikes by Israel on the Islamic Republic of Iran and its nuclear programme last night.

France expresses its deep concern in light of the ongoing escalation. It urges the parties to refrain from any action that could destabilize the wider region.

France is monitoring the situation on the ground. Our top concern is the safety of our personnel and nationals in the region.

France calls on the parties to use all diplomatic means to de-escalate the situation. France stands ready to contribute to this goal, in close coordination with all its partners.

France underlines that it has often reiterated its concerns about the acceleration of the Iranian nuclear programme, which is a serious threat to the security of the national territory and is a violation of Iran’s international obligations. It did so again this week, voting for a resolution during the meeting of the Board of Governors of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) following the publication of a report by the Director General.

France regularly expresses its support for ongoing efforts to seek a diplomatic solution. The Minister for Europe and Foreign Affairs, Jean-Noël Barrot, spoke this morning with his Israeli and Saudi counterparts to recall this.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has declared that Israel will “take control of all” of the Gaza Strip, signaling an unprecedented escalation in the ongoing conflict. In a video posted to Telegram, Netanyahu emphasized that military operations are advancing rapidly, with no intention of backing down. “The fighting is intense, and we are making progress,” he said, framing the offensive as necessary for Israel’s long-term security. But as international pressure mounts, his government is walking a tightrope between military dominance and global condemnation.
