Peters reportedly preferred a more cautious stance that neither condemned nor explicitly supported US military action. Luxon stated he was merely challenging the advice provided. Former Labour Party foreign minister Phil Goff stated that Prime Minister Christopher Luxon's refusal to dismiss an ACT Party leader demonstrates weakness regarding his coalition partner. Goff suggested the move by the ACT Party leader was deliberate and will damage Luxon's standing with the public and within his own caucus. The dispute follows the release of emails suggesting Luxon had considered expressing explicit public support regarding US action in Iran. Luxon stated the emails mischaracterized his position. Peters has since acknowledged he should have consulted the Prime Minister before releasing the correspondence. The government stated it requires more information regarding multinational plans related to the situation.
