‘US must be held accountable.’ 

Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has condemned the US leading role in the recent terrorist operations in Iran, underlining that the Islamic Republic will take legal action against Washington. In an article published in a domestic media outlet, Araghchi stated that the US must be held accountable for the operations. He said the acts of terrorism once again exposed the true nature of the US conduct toward Iran. Araghchi added that the terrorist actions raised question whether governments can interfere in other nations without paying the price for that. The top Iranian diplomat referred to attacks on mosques, banks, hospitals, and other public property, as well as killing innocent civilians in the recent unrest. Araghchi said those attacks were aimed at crippling the public order and instilling fear. Araghchi also slammed attacks on Iran’s consulate and mission buildings in other countries as a clear violation of diplomatic norms and rights. 

 Anti-Trump protests in US

On the first anniversary of Donald Trump’s second term, a number of cities across the US have seen protests against the president. Hundreds of protesters marched through the streets of Boston to denounce Trump and his immigration policies. The demonstration was part of a nationwide action dubbed the “Free America Walkout”. The protesters criticized actions taken by the president during his first year in office, including increased Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids. They held banners reading slogans such as “Stop I-C-E terror now.” The demonstrators were also critical of the US aggression against Venezuela and abduction of President Maduro. In California’s Burbank, several hundred people also took to the streets, slamming Trump for deliberately fostering division in the country. 

Ruptured world order 

Canada’s prime minister says the US-led world order is over, slamming the use of economic integration of weapons and tariffs as leverage. Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Mark Carney said the world order is not coming back. He said great powers have begun using financial structure as coercion and supply chains as vulnerabilities to be exploited. Carney also emphasized that countries like Canada can no longer hope that compliance will buy safety. The Canadian premier made the comments at a time when the long-standing alliance between the US and other NATO members is at risk over Trump’s foreign policy, including towards Greenland.
