Iran: Statement by the Spokesperson on the attack in Damascus
The European Union condemns the attack on an Iranian diplomatic installation in Damascus on 1 April, as well as the reported casualties.
In this highly tense regional situation, it is imperative to show utmost restraint. Further escalation in the region is in no one’s interest.
