The question is being raised that America is blindly supporting America in Iraq and Afghanistan. Britain Why are you maintaining silence on Iran issue?

Why is Britain keeping distance from war?

1. Europe is already trapped in war- Britain is located in Europe and Europe is already embroiled in war. The war between Russia and Ukraine is going on since 2022. Britain is against Russia in this fight. Russia is one of the most powerful countries in the world. In such a situation, if Britain turns towards Iran for America, then Russia can increase its influence in Europe, which will be a direct loss to Britain. This is the reason why Britain is cautious.

2. Deliberately chose the option of war- Britain's National Security Advisor Powell had recently submitted a report to the British Prime Minister. Powell said that the agreement between Iran and America was almost final. Despite this, America attacked at the behest of Israel. Britain believes that America has deliberately chosen the option of war. Therefore one should avoid jumping into this fight.

3. Iran will attack in 20 minutesAccording to The Sun, the distance between America and Iran is about 12000 kilometers. The distance from Iran to Britain is around 2700 km. Iran to attack Britain Many dangerous missiles are present. Iran can attack Britain within 20 minutes. Recently, Iran's Foreign Minister had also sent a warning to Britain in this regard. Britain does not want its people to travel in this war.

4. Threat of third world war- If Britain enters the Iran war, the world may be at risk of a third world war. The current hope of ceasefire will also end. The British Prime Minister knows that this will harm the Middle East and Europe the most. This is the reason why Starmer remains silent even after bearing Trump's insult.
