Summary
Former Deputy National Security Advisor for the Middle East Victoria Coates breaks down an unholy alliance happening between Iran and South Africa. Coates explains that not only is this highly concerning as “South Africa being a civil nuclear country, that there is could potentially be nuclear cooperation there that could be deeply, deeply dangerous. Then the other thing that is potentially very unfortunate is of course, all of these ships that the Iranian backed Houthi rebels are preventing from going through the Red Sea are being rerouted around South Africa. So if the Iranians get a toehold in South Africa, they could be in a position to say we not only threatening the mouth of the Red Sea, we not only threaten the Persian Gulf bottleneck at at the Strait of Hormuz, but we could also threaten the Cape of Good Hope, through our good friends with the South Africans. So that that then creates a whole other set of troubles and dangers that the Iranians may be setting up here.”
