Kremlin says the whole Middle East is 'on fire'

The Kremlin on Monday said that the Iran war was escalating in both geography and economic impact, and that the whole Middle East region was "on fire" due to the U.S. and Israeli attacks on the Islamic Republic.

When asked by Reuters about Trump's remarks, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters that Russia had seen them but that the Kremlin preferred not ⁠to comment directly.

"We note that the level of tension in the region is growing and continues to grow," Peskov said. "In fact, the entire region is on ⁠fire. These are all very dangerous and negative consequences of the aggression that was unleashed against Iran."

"The geography ⁠of this conflict has expanded, and now we are all aware of the consequences that ⁠we have, including very, very negative consequences for the global economy."
