Sound of a great war in the Middle East: Iran enraged by Britain’s entry, will Diego Garcia airbase cause devastation?
The ongoing tension in the Middle East has now reached such a dangerous point from where the path of return seems difficult. Amidst the increasing military conflict between America and Iran, Britain has also made a direct entry into the battlefield. There has been a stir in Tehran after the British government gave the green signal to America to use its strategic military bases. Describing this step as an attack on its sovereignty, Iran has openly warned of facing ‘devastating consequences’. Britain’s big decision: Airbase and Diego Garcia will open way. According to the latest strategic reports, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has taken a big decision and allowed the US Air Force to use its most important bases for ‘defensive operations’ against Iran. Under this decision, RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire and the strategically-sensitive Diego Garcia military base located in the middle of the Indian Ocean will now be open to American bombers. Defense experts believe that from these bases America can directly siege Iran, which will further strengthen its control over important trade routes like the Strait of Hormuz. Iran’s sharp reaction and Tehran’s ‘disastrous’ warning. Iran has taken a very strict stance on this step of Britain. In official statements issued by Iran’s Foreign Ministry, it has been described as ‘the last nail in the coffin’ for the peace of the region. Tehran has warned that Britain would face ‘unimaginable consequences’ if British soil or islands under its control were used for any military action against Iran. Iran has also made it clear that the increasing interference in the region by foreign powers is inviting a major regional war. Crisis on the global economy: fear of surge in supply chains and oil prices. The international community is seeing this increasing tension as the knock of the Third World War. The United Nations (UN) and many European countries have appealed to all parties to exercise restraint. According to experts, if military activities start from a base like Diego Garcia, it will have a direct impact on the global supply chain and crude oil market. Any kind of military conflict in the Indian Ocean can bring to a halt the movement of merchant ships around the world, causing petrol and diesel prices to rise.
