Russian leaders have increasingly voiced sharp warnings about U.S. “regime change” policies and the escalating conflict involving Iran, signaling deep Moscow frustration with Western military interventions. Former Russian President and current Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev has publicly cautioned that continued aggressive U.S. actions could trigger a wider global conflict, even warning that World War III could become a possibility if provocations persist—remarks reflecting Russian concerns over U.S. strategy in the Middle East and beyond. Russia has repeatedly condemned U.S. and Israeli military strikes on Iran, labeling them as irresponsible and illegal actions that threaten regional and global stability. Moscow has emphasized the need for restraint and diplomatic solutions while opposing foreign intervention in Iran’s internal affairs.
