The US and Britain are concerned that Russia is transferring secret information and technology to Iran that could contribute to its nuclear weapons. This was reported by Bloomberg.

Unnamed Western officials claim that the Kremlin has recently increased its cooperation with Iran to assist it in nuclear armament.

This topic was discussed by US and British officials in Washington during a meeting between Prime Minister Keir Starmer and President Joe Biden at the White House. They expressed concern about the escalation of military ties between Russia and Iran.

A White House National Security Council representative stated that the Biden administration was deeply concerned about Iran's nuclear activities. According to him, the US is ready to use all means to prevent any nuclear escalation by Iran.

During a visit to London, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken noted that Russia is exchanging nuclear technologies with Tehran. He also said that Russia received Fath-360 missiles from Iran.

It was noted that Blinken and British Foreign Secretary David Lammy agreed that Iran's nuclear program had never been so advanced.

Iran claims that it does not intend to develop nuclear weapons, but there are fears that it might do so in response to the conflict with Israel.

Analysts have already assessed the possibility of nuclear escalation by Russia in response to attacks on Russia.
