The year 2010 might not begin on a good note for Iran, if US and Russia are able to pass the new UN sanctions against Iran. The Iranian regime has been getting illegal support from Russia and Pakistan for building nuclear missile development facilities in the last few years.
The arrogant Iranian regime getting access to nuclear warheads is a nightmare which US and Russia want to avoid. That could be the common agenda of the two global powers to launch a unified attack on Iran. The coming days could see the political moves and statements happening from both the parties.
The development bodes more trouble for the Middle East region as a whole.
