The possibility of a US nuclear attack on Iran is constantly present: Alexey Leonkov Military analyst Alexey Leonkov spoke to "Alpha News" about the congressional elections held in the US, how they will affect relations with Russia and Europe, and what is the likelihood of a US nuclear attack on Iran. "What to expect in relation to Russia? I don't think anything will change for the better. The hopes of Europe and Ukraine that the democrats will change Trump's policies and their lives will become easier and they will live happily ever after are also in vain. It's an illusion that doesn't really work. If you ask the Europeans, who blew up Nord Stream, who did this economic plague happen to? About whom did this epidemic happen? The crisis, the situation in the Persian Gulf, all these are things that were created under the Democrats and did not lead to a happy ending. Trump tried to correct this situation, but was also dragged into a series of military conflicts, among which the Persian Gulf became a trap for him, from which he was never able to get out. I'm not even talking about the conflict in Ukraine. Therefore, I would not expect sharp changes in the exchange rates of the United States of America," the expert believes. According to an Alfa News interlocutor, the United States may launch a nuclear attack on Iran. The likelihood of this, although minimal, remains constant. "Regarding the situation in the Middle East, the forces that are gathering there are really intended to give some kind of strong attack, because in terms of the amount of aviation fuel tankers that they gathered there, quite a lot. And the question related to a nuclear attack: some say that the probability is minimal and so on. I would say it is minimal at a fixed level of the US has a limited US solution - the fact is that nuclear war has a US doctrine. Can be used by the commander of the strategic command of the US in this area he does not need to ask the opinion of the president and so on.
