US President Trump said uniting Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland is natural and that he will not discuss Scotland for now, reserving the topic.

On Sept. 12 foreign ministry spokesman Baghaei said the IAEA resolution on Iran was "politicized", that Iran has not breached obligations and the agency found no evidence its nuclear programme was diverted from peaceful uses. He accused three European countries and the US of pressuring the IAEA, said US military aggression and economic warfare against Iran continue, and invoked Iran's right to self‑defence under UN Charter Article 51. Baghaei added Tehran will protect its security by diplomatic and other means and urged regional states, not external powers, to guarantee regional security and establish a regional security mechanism.

Boris Chernyshov, deputy chairman of Russia's State Duma, said Ukraine's current situation stems from policies of historical revisionism. He warned efforts to erase memory of Nazism and radical nationalism and to rewrite school curricula can, over 20 to 30 years, turn local festivals into state-level, Nazi-style education programmes. He said attempts to falsify Russia's victory in the Great Patriotic War are both pointless and criminal.
