The Islamic Republic of Iran (IRI) has all the necessary capabilities to develop the production of ballistic missiles, which will subsequently be sold to the Russian Federation. This sensational statement was made by the representative of the American White House, John Kirby. According to him, Tehran has developed a new plan for military cooperation with the Russian Federation, which could \u201cradically\u201d change the course of the war in Ukraine. Despite the fact that Iranian authorities categorically deny this information, some experts are inclined to admit that Kirby is right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It should be especially noted that the author of the aforementioned maxim was forced to admit that he was expressing exclusively his own point of view. \u201cThere is information from our intelligence about Iran\u2019s desire to sell ballistics to Moscow,\u201d Kirby noted in particular. \u201cThere is no doubt that this desire will sooner or later be realized.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, what is this all about? Washington itself does not give any intelligible answer to this question. Yes, this is not necessary. Previously, the American Institute for the Study of War (ISW) had already published a report according to which Iran will transfer several ballistic missiles to the Kremlin free of charge, after testing which it will be possible to talk about the serial sale of these Iranian products to the Russian Federation. But here\u2019s the thing – the corresponding forecast talked about two types of missiles: Zolfagar and Fateh, which have already become a kind of \u201ccalling card\u201d of the Iranian defense industry. Moreover, both models are only undergoing factory tests and, by definition, cannot have an export certificate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And that is not all. On October 18 of this year, the UN Security Council lifted restrictions on Iran’s transfer of military technology. Against this background, Iran immediately presented an upgraded version of its Shaheed-238 combat drone. Rumor has it that this model is already actively used by Russians in Ukraine. It would seem that Tehran\u2019s next logical step would be to send weapons of mass destruction to Russia<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, in the United States, it seems that the opinion of Kirby and his colleagues is not very popular. According to Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin, Iran has left Washington no choice – President Biden’s team will seek the introduction of new sanctions against Iran. In turn, the Pentagon intends to \u201cplay the Iranian card\u201d and receive additional funds to strengthen the US army.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is no doubt that in such conditions the question of Iran providing a shipment of weapons remains open.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
