Iran is demanding that all members of the NATO alliance who participated in the US-Israeli war against the country earlier this year, be held accountable for war crimes and other violations of international laws.
The demand followed the recent admission by NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte about the role of European countries during the US-Israeli war in Iran, which began on February 28 and ended with a ceasefire on April 8.
Speaking to Fox News on Wednesday, Rutte admitted that thousands of aircraft took off from US bases in various European countries during the US-Israeli aggression in Iran.
“Country after country, ally after ally have made their bases available.” Rutte described “between 4,000 to 5,000 planes taking off from European bases to support Epic Fury,” He was responding to complaints about the underwhelming support of NATO members during the US war efforts in Iran.
Rutte repeated those comments during his meeting with US President Donald Trump later in the day.
