"We note that the level of tension in the region is growing and continues to grow. In fact, the whole region is on fire," Peskov told reporters.
The consequences of the aggression unleashed against Iran are very dangerous, including for the global economy, the official said, adding that the geography of the conflict over Iran has expanded.
"Now we are all stating the consequences that we have, including very, very negative consequences for the global economy. In fact, from the very beginning, even before the start of hostilities, we warned that such consequences were inevitable," Peskov said.
