US President Donald Trump should be stripped of his authority to involve the country in the conflict in the Middle East between Iran and Israel. This was announced on June 22 by Democratic Senator Chris Murphy.

"Only Congress can declare a preemptive war, and we must vote for legislation as soon as possible to directly strip President Trump of his authority to involve us in a conflict in the Middle East that could lead to countless American casualties and the loss of trillions," he wrote on the social network X (ex. Twitter).

He added that Trump is poorly versed in the history of the United States' involvement in conflicts in the Middle East. In his opinion, Trump was pushed to strike Iran by the "constant organizers of the war" in the Middle East, "people who know how to start conflicts there, but never know how to end them."

The attack on three nuclear facilities became known on June 21. US President Donald Trump said that the attack was aimed at three Iranian nuclear facilities in Fordo, Natanz and Isfahan. According to Trump, the operation was successful. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in turn, said that American strikes could change history.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi, in turn, accused the United States of violating the UN Charter, international law and the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT). The minister stressed that the attack from Washington would have lasting consequences.
