N Kor and S Kor have agreed to peace today. Train service is restored (actually a year ago and tourists having been flooding into N Kor all this time.)
That leaves Iran, or Iran plus Russia if Russia thinks it worth the trouble.
Russia’s only going to support Iran for as long as Iran can afford it. Russia doesn’t need oil, as it has tremendous untapped resources of its own. Putin’s job is to keep Russia’s economy going. He’s quite good at that. He’s not going to waste time on countries that don’t/can’t pay. If he feels certain that we’ll attack Iran and take out the current regime, he won’t Russia remembered as the country that kept that regime going, as then the new regime won’t do business with Russia. Plenty of other rich countries to do business with. And plenty of patience for a better time to act.
