Global Times Says U.S. is Responsible for Failure of Peace Mechanisms in the Middle East

With regards to the recent armed conflict between Iran and Israel in the Middle East, Global Times released an editorial “Who is responsible for the failure of peace mechanisms in the Middle East?”

The editorial commented as follows:

On April 14, Iran launched missile and drone attacks on Israeli territory in retaliation for an Israeli airstrike on its embassy in Syria on April 1. As a result, the situation in the Middle East appears to be sliding toward more serious turmoil.

The failure of the U.S. to effectively bear and fulfill its international responsibilities is one of the root causes of the current turmoil in the Middle East.

The U.S. has not condemned or restrained Israel's attacks on the Iranian embassy in Syria but when Iran launched retaliatory attacks against Israel, it immediately stood by Israel's side and rallied other Western countries to condemn Iran's military actions.

On the one hand, the U.S. is "mediating" in the Middle East, claiming to want to facilitate a cease-fire between Hamas of Palestine and Israel, while on the other hand, it continues to provide weapons and equipment to Israel and defends Israel's actions internationally.

In conclusion, the editorial said that the double standards and unilateralism of the U.S. and some other Western countries will lead to a contradiction that makes it difficult to resolve the conflict in the short term and further exacerbate the regional situation.
