Democrat, Republican Senate veterans diverge on Iran war wisdom

Jun 22, 2025, 05:41 GMT+1

US Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer hit out at President Donald Trump's attack on Iran, asking him to “provide the American people and Congress clear answers on the actions taken tonight and their implications for the safety of Americans.”

“No president should be allowed to unilaterally march this nation into something as consequential as war with erratic threats and no strategy,”

Former Republican Senate leader Mitch McConnell, however, said the attack was logical citing Iran's hostile stance.

"Seizing this opportunity is not an escalation toward war — it is a prudent response to the warmongers in Tehran."

Iran’s mission to the United Nations has formally requested an emergency meeting of the UN Security Council following US airstrikes on its nuclear facilities in Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan.

In a letter addressed to the Council, Iran condemned what it described as a "blatant and unlawful act of aggression" and urged the Security Council to respond immediately.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran urgently demands that the Security Council convene without delay to address this clear act of aggression, condemn it in the strongest possible terms, and take all necessary measures within its mandate under the UN Charter to ensure the perpetrators are held fully accountable and do not escape punishment,” the letter said.
