【British nuclear submarine enters the Arabian Sea, ready to strike Iran】
According to a report by the UK's Daily Mail, the British nuclear submarine "Anson" has been deployed to the Arabian Sea, equipped with "Tomahawk" missiles, and is ready to launch direct attacks on Iran.
It is reported that the "Anson" was originally stationed in Australia, left at the beginning of this month, sailed northwest, and finally arrived in the Arabian Sea. Theoretically, this submarine has the capability to conduct long-range strikes against Iran, but whether it will actually join the ranks of the US and Israel remains unclear.
Insiders have only revealed that this deployment was carried out after the Starmer government authorized the US to use British bases to strike Iranian targets threatening the Strait of Hormuz. From this perspective, the probability of Britain directly participating in the conflict exists.
Currently, the Starmer government is in an awkward position. At the beginning of the war, Starmer's performance did not satisfy Trump. Originally, Trump had always believed that Britain was the most steadfast ally of the United States, and if the US had difficulties in the future, even if other NATO countries did not come, Britain would directly step in to help. However, this time changed Trump's perception. When Trump specifically called on allies to escort in the Strait of Hormuz, Starmer's initial private refusal further deepened Trump's negative impression of Britain.
Of course, Starmer's actions can be understood. When the former prime minister Blair followed Bush to invade Iraq, it still causes great controversy within the UK and the Labour Party today.
However, even if Starmer orders the British military to participate in the war now, it might not change Trump's impression of Britain, because Trump has repeatedly stated: It's already too late to join the war.
