“All seven of us agree that they have a right to respond, but they should respond proportionally,” Biden said, referring to Group of Seven (G7) allies. His comments come as the United States suggests it will roll out new sanctions against Iran over its missile attack on Israel.
"The president said he would be speaking with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “relatively soon” following Iran’s attack, adding that the U.S. is offering advice to Israel offices on how to respond to the terrorist country’s strike. Meanwhile, U.S. Security Adviser Jake Sullivan warned Iran that it will face “severe consequences” for its attack.
“ 'We are now going to look at what the appropriate next steps are to secure, first and foremost, American interests, and then to promote stability to the maximum extent possible as we go forward,” Sullivan said Tuesday, although those “steps” are unclear.
"Last week, Israel staged a surprise attack and killed Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah by launching an airstrike on the terrorist group’s headquarters in Lebanon." . . .
