Norway's PM Gahr Store says the U.S. strikes on nuclear sites have further complicated the situation in the Middle East and left the UN Security Council effectively paralyzed.⁠


“[The attack] is not in line with international law,” he told Norway’s NTB news agency. “It is regrettable that the work to find a diplomatic solution and a new nuclear agreement with Iran has not progressed.”⁠

He also addressed whether the US attacks could be justified as an act of self-defense.⁠

“International law provides the right to self-defense, but it is debatable whether this falls into the category of self-defense for the US. The latest attack does not remove the need for a lasting agreement in the long term.⁠”
