Carney on US Threats Regarding Iran: Parties Must Adhere to International Law

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has expressed his views on the recent tensions between the United States and Iran, highlighting the critical need for all parties involved to adhere to international law. This statement was made during a press interaction, where he commented on recent remarks by U.S. President Donald Trump, as reported by a correspondent from Ukrinform.

Carney pointed out that Canada expects all participants in the conflict to respect international norms that prohibit attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure. 'We urge all participants in this war to adhere to these obligations,' the Prime Minister emphasized, adding that he has conveyed this message 'both publicly and privately.'

It is important to note that Carney also highlighted the ongoing negotiations within the context of the conflict, indicating that what is discussed publicly may significantly differ from private discussions. This underscores the complexity of the situation and the necessity for a diplomatic approach to resolve the conflict.

Recall that U.S. President Donald Trump previously stated that a 'critical moment' in world history would occur that night, warning of the potential loss of 'entire civilizations' should the conflict escalate. These words have raised concerns not only within the United States but also beyond its borders, as the situation in the region remains tense.

The New York Times, citing its sources, reported that Iran had halted negotiations with the United States regarding a ceasefire on April 7. This development serves as yet another signal of the intensifying conflict that has persisted for several years.

On April 6, Iran transmitted a ten-point proposal for a peaceful resolution of the conflict with the United States and Israel through Pakistan. However, despite these attempts to achieve peace, the situation remains extremely complicated, and the next steps taken by the parties could significantly impact the course of events.
