Canada says Iran must not obtain nuclear weapons, urges return to talks

Iran is a threat to international security and must not be allowed to acquire nuclear weapons, Canada said on Sunday, urging all sides to de-escalate and resume negotiations after overnight US airstrikes on Iran’s nuclear sites.

“Canada has been consistent and clear that Iran must not possess nuclear weapons as they are a threat to international security,” the Canadian foreign ministry said on X. “We urge parties to return to the negotiating table and reach a resolution to this crisis.”
