Russia's Nuclear Secret: A Shadowy Deal with Iran?
Middle EastMon Sep 16 2024
The world is wracked with concern as reports emerge that Russia may be sharing its nuclear expertise with Iran, bolstering its weapons program in exchange for ballistic missiles to bomb Ukraine. The US and UK leaders, President Biden and Prime Minister Keir Starmer, have expressed their worries privately, citing a possible two-way street where Russia provides technology to Iran, including on nuclear issues and space information.
What if this assumption is wrong? What if Russia's true intention is to create a nuclear-powered Iran, making it a regional superpower?
The exact details of the alleged deal remain unclear, but intelligence sources believe Russia is providing specialists to help streamline Iran's nuclear program, which is growing its stockpile of enriched uranium.

But, what exactly is Russia getting in return? Are they trading nuclear technology for something more valuable?
Experts point out that Iran's nuclear capabilities remain a tightly kept secret, and their development could see a significant boost from Russia, which holds the largest arsenal of nuclear weapons in the world.
"We're talking about a potential game-changer. If Iran acquires a nuclear weapon, the whole region will be at risk," warns an expert.
In May, the International Atomic Energy Agency warned that Tehran has about 313. 2 pounds of uranium enriched up to 60%, a significant increase from previous years.
Iran has repeatedly claimed it doesn't seek to create a nuclear bomb, but experts question their sincerity.
The G7 foreign ministers united in condemning the arms deal between Iran and Russia, calling for an immediate end to the exchange.
"Iran must cease supporting Russia's war against Ukraine and stop transferring ballistic missiles, UAVs, and related technology," the statement reads.
As tensions escalate, the international community must remain vigilant and scrutinize the alleged deal between Russia and Iran.
