In the early hours of January 8, Iran launched a revenge plan, carrying out a night attack on the US military base in Iraq, and the tension in the Middle East escalated again, and the cloud of war hung over the land. That evening, Russian politician and LDP chairman Zhirinovsky posted a lengthy post on his social media, calling for a series of urgent measures to avoid Iran's fate as the next Libya.
Zhirinovsky stressed that the Iranian leadership should sign a treaty with Russia to purchase the latest air defense systems and deploy Russian military bases in the country, while closing its airspace to avoid any external threats. He also noted that Western countries must fully withdraw military and civilian personnel from Iran and Iraq and hand over military bases to the Iraqi government. In addition, he proposed that all troops should also be withdrawn from places such as Syria, Kuwait and Afghanistan to restore calm to the Middle East, the world's most conflict-prone region. He called on the international community to support the national governments of Iran and Iraq so that those countries could independently restore order and ensure peace and tranquillity. He believes that Russia can play a mediating role in this and promote the region towards maturity and harmony.
In addition, Zhirinovsky proposed to move the UN headquarters to Prague, Minsk or Moscow in Europe. He criticized the United States for interfering with the normal functioning of the United Nations and denying visas for diplomats, which seriously hampered the work of the organization. He called on the United States to stand alone, move towards the road of "closing itself off", should not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, and avoid creating chaos in the world. He said, "The human world is tired of the bullying behavior of the United States, and the United States should stop threatening and bombing other countries, and should not sanction other countries at will, which will only lead to more hatred and conflict." ”
This remark aroused widespread attention, and Zhirinovsky's views were shared by some international communities. In the face of tensions in the Middle East, the international community expects all parties to act calmly and seek a peaceful solution to the problem, rather than taking actions that intensify the conflict.
