Iran and Russia Push To Resume Bushehr Nuclear Expansion Despite Recent Missile Strikes
Russia is doubling down on its nuclear commitment to Iran. Despite recent strikes hitting the perimeter of the Bushehr nuclear plant, Iranian Ambassador Kazem Jalali says Tehran is working with Moscow to accelerate the construction of two new reactors. With Rosatom experts returning to the site, the project has become more than an energy hub—it’s a symbol of a strategic alliance that Washington and Tel Aviv can’t ignore. Russia has issued a stark warning: any direct hit on Bushehr is a "red line" that could trigger a regional catastrophe.
