Tajikistan has strongly condemned the airstrikes carried out by the United States and Israel on Iran’s nuclear facilities on June 22. The statement, issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Tajikistan and published on Sunday, was reported by Asiaplus.tj.

In its official declaration, the Tajik Foreign Ministry emphasized that such actions pose a serious threat to both regional and global security, warning they could trigger a large-scale military conflict with dangerous consequences for the Middle East and the wider international community.

“The Republic of Tajikistan, reaffirming its commitment to the principles and norms of international law, expresses deep concern over the sharp escalation of tensions and calls for the immediate cessation of hostilities,” the statement reads.

Dushanbe appealed to the United Nations, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), and other respected international bodies to take urgent and decisive action to prevent further destabilization. The appeal also urged efforts to avert potential environmental and humanitarian disasters that could result from strikes on sensitive nuclear facilities.

The Foreign Ministry underlined that all disagreements and international disputes must be resolved solely through political and diplomatic means, in full accordance with international law and with respect for state sovereignty.

Tajikistan also voiced its support for global efforts to reduce tensions and restore sustainable peace and stability in the Middle East. The statement reflects the country’s broader foreign policy stance centered on non-intervention and adherence to peaceful conflict resolution.
