Iran’s nuclear programme "cannot go forward"

Prime Minister Luís Montenegro stated that "Iran’s nuclear programme is a serious threat to world security, and it therefore cannot go forward" in a post on X.

Luís Montenegro stated he is likewise "very concerned with the rising risk in the Middle East", calling on "maximum containment by all parties and a return to negotiations to find a diplomatic solution".

First Israel and then the United States have destroyed the Iranian dictatorship’s facilities and attacked the military nuclear programme’s chain of command, military defence, and the defence industries. 

Through the same social network, the Minister of Foreign Affairs informed that "following the dawn of many diplomatic consultations", the Minister of Foreign Affairs Paulo Rangel will attend an EU Ministers of Foreign Affairs meeting. 

"An agenda for maximum containment and a return to negotiations in the Middle East", the post goes on to say.
