Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has said that Russia "will do everything" in its power to create conditions that would render an American-Israeli war of aggression against Iran "impossible."

Lavrov made the remarks on Thursday during a roundtable discussion with ambassadors, amid escalating US-Israeli aggression against Iran.

Lavrov emphasized Russia`s commitment to maintaining dialogue with regional nations and the international community, including the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) and the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), to prevent further US and Israeli aggression against Iran.

"We will continue to dialogue with these countries and include other countries and international communities of the UNSC and UNGA to make these operations impossible," he said.

The Russian foreign minister further stated that the United States` ongoing military offensive, dubbed "Operation Epic Fury," aims to create divisions among Persian Gulf countries and disrupt relations between Iran and its Arab neighbors.

"One of the goals of these operations is to divide the countries of the Persian Gulf," he said.

Additionally, Lavrov expressed concern that the ongoing war against Iran could undermine non-proliferation principles.

He warned that the US and Israel`s unprovoked war of aggression against Iran might encourage a nuclear arms race.

"I hope very much that the current war against Iran will not undermine the foundations of non-proliferation principles. It is already being loudly said that by proclaiming the goal of depriving Iran of nuclear weapons, in fact, the United States and Israel can encourage the nuclear arms race, because there are more and more examples proving that if you have no nuclear weapon, you can be treated as one chooses," he said.

In his closing remarks, Lavrov urged for an open and honest dialogue to avoid military actions that could lead to severe consequences, stating that negotiations must continue to prevent escalation that would impact the global economy.

According to Forbes, the United States` expanding military aggression against Iran is already carrying a multibillion-dollar price tag, with early estimates suggesting American taxpayers have absorbed more than $1 billion in costs in just the opening phase of the war.

Budget analysts warn that if the war continues, total direct military expenses could climb to between $40 billion and $95 billion, with broader economic damage potentially far higher.
