Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on March 16 that the United States and Israel had misjudged the prospects of a swift military operation in Iran, arguing that Washington and Jerusalem now understand they were "mistaken."
I don’t care which type of government a country has but I support each country’s sovereignty.
I don’t know which country you are in, but I assume we both are part of the global minority that has won the birth lottery and are now residing in a region with relatively stable democratic institutions, a high standard of living, and the enjoyment of expressing an opinion without fear of the police showing up and make you disappear.
The UN Charter, the Declaration of Human Rights, and all other international agreements are valuable if respected by everyone that signed them. Countries like Iran, Russia, and China have signed most of these agreements (including the Declaration of Human Rights), but are apparently ignoring them by default. Russia, for example, agreed to more than 20 ceasefire agreement since its Ukraine invasion has began in 2014, and the Kremlin has undermined all of them.
Iran has now been sending weapons to Russia, supporting its aggression. China has been rightfully named a decisive enabler of Russia in the Ukraine war. Your argument that Ukraine is also supported by the West is dishonest and discredits you, because Ukraine is defending itself. The EU, the US, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, Canada, and other democratic states are supporting Ukraine’s defense. Iran and China are supporting Russia’s aggression.
This is why we should all care. Because the UN Charter and all other agreements are worthless if not enforced, and we are going in the wrong direction if we don’t stop those who breach them.
Autocratic regimes are not only suppressing their own citizens, they are also actively threatening Western-style democracies and the people there. We must oppose them by all means - militarily, politically, and economically. I don’t want, to provide an example, cheap oil and gas from Russia and Iran nor any renewable energy tech from China.

UN Charter doesn’t block aggressor or defending country from trading with others. If it did, we would be at World War at this point. That’s my argument, not whatever you try to make it.
Like I said multiple time, I support Ukraine’s fight for their sovereignty, but unlike unprincipled people I in the same way support Iran’s fight for their sovereignty from US and Israel aggression.

Thank you. Can we start with those who commited most breaches then? Like United States who coined the term “double-tap” for their tactic of sending a second Predator drone strike to kill first responders or United Kingdom for their mass rape and war crimes in Iraq or Israel for the biggest war crime of this century where they now openly talk about committing a second genocide this time in Lebanon? Or are we only allow to apply these rules to non-democtratic countries like China, Russia and Iran?

So in response we bomb their people there, right? Comic book villain type shit…

United States, Israel and Ukraine also signed them. Lets include all parties in the discussion. Israel, for example, managed to violate ceasefire agreement more than 10,000 times in a year in Lebanon alone and those beacons of democracy and decency couldn’t say a single fucking word about it.
