Iran took the US and the Western world by surprise and shock yesterday, when it declared itself as a nuclear capable state. The Iranian President made this stunning announcement as part of the 31st anniversary of the Iranian revolution. The announcement comes as a big slap in the face of US and the Western forces, who have been working hard in pushing for more sanctions against Iran.
Russia and China have been opposing the sanctions and now these two VETO power countries would also be forced to support new sanctions against Iran. Iran may now become a real threat for the Western interests in the Asian and African region.
