Israel and the US heavily bombed much of Iran’s missile factory complex, everything except the underground sections. This certainly delays their planning, and it is quite possible that there have been partial losses of stockpiles that have not yet been documented. We need to look at the resilience of all this. War is a marathon, as long as you make it through the initial phase.

I am gravely concerned by the escalating violence in Lebanon: Hezbollah’s attacks on Israel and the targeting of civilians must cease. Together with France, Italy, Canada and United Kingdom, I am urging for immediate de-escalation.


Iran has the US in a trap. And they won't let them out.

I have just spoken with Iranian President Massoud Pezeshkian. I called on him to put an immediate end to the unacceptable attacks Iran is carrying out against countries in the region, whether directly or through proxies, including in Lebanon and Iraq. I reminded him that France is acting within a strictly defensive framework aimed at protecting its interests, its regional partners, and freedom of navigation, and that it is unacceptable for our country to be targeted. The unchecked escalation we are witnessing is plunging the entire region into chaos, with major consequences today and for the years to come. The people of Iran, like those across the region, are paying the price. Only a new political and security framework can ensure peace and security for all. Such a framework must guarantee that Iran never acquires nuclear weapons, while also addressing the threats posed by its ballistic missile programme and its destabilising activities regionally and internationally. Freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz must be restored as soon as possible. I also urged the Iranian President to allow Cécile Kohler and Jacques Paris to return safely to France as soon as possible. Their ordeal has gone on for far too long, and they belong with their loved ones.
