There Russia may have shared nuclear secrets with Iranin exchange for the supply of ballistic missiles. This the fear expressed by the United States and the United Kingdom as reported by the British newspaper The Guardian, about last Friday’s summit in Washington.
“On that occasion Keir Starmer and US President Joe Biden recognized – writes Dan Sabbagh – that the two countries are strengthening military cooperation at a time when Iran is engaged in the process of enriching uranium to achieve its goal of building a nuclear bomb.”
In the article “British sources” are cited to describe the “concerns” expressed “regarding Iran’s trade in nuclear technologyas part of an increasingly close alliance between Tehran and Moscow”.
A warning in this sense, it is recalled, was also launched by US Secretary of State Antony Blinken during his recent visit to London, for a summit with his British counterpart David Lammy, accusing the two countries reports the Guardian of “being involved in destabilizing activities that sow ‘even more insecurity’ around the world.”
From here thealarm also in Europe: “Britain, France, and Germany have jointly warned that the Iran’s stockpile of highly enriched uranium continue to ‘grow significantly’ without any justification and that ‘four significant quantities’ have been accumulated, each of which could be used to make a nuclear bomb.”
The creation of an Iranian nuclear weapon is a concern which, as the British newspaper underlines, has been circulating for a long time, and which has worsened in this phase of very strong tensions in the Middle East.
