Russia says it's working on major new agreement with Iran
Reuters ^ | 12/12/2023 | Reuters

Russia and Iran will speed up work on a "major new interstate agreement", the Russian foreign ministry said on Tuesday.

-snip-

Iran is the main backer of Israel's enemy Hamas. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke by phone with Putin on Sunday and voiced "robust disapproval" of Russia's "dangerous" cooperation with Iran.

Iranian authorities have said military cooperation with Russia is expanding day by day. Iran said last month it had finalised arrangements for Russia to provide it with Su-35 fighter jets, Mi-28 attack helicopters and Yak-130 pilot training aircraft.

The significant risk, given US providing weapons to a third party who launches them into Russia, is Russia providing weapons to a third party who launches them into the US.

Some portable Muslim group would be the obvious recipient, who travel to Central America and target the Houston oil refinery complex from there, and then disappear.

Tell me why Russia wouldn’t try to find allies when being attacked by NATO and the US MarxistMinimus.

Russia has been allied with Iran for several decades thus far.

It’s a matter of perspective.

"except Russia ISN’T being attacked by NATO"

Don't be a lying propagandist. This is just like Iran backing Hamas attacking Israel.

According to the latest data from the Kiel Institute for the World Economy, a German think tank, NATO members committed at least 75.2 billion euros ($80.5bn) in financial, humanitarian and military aid between January 24 and November 20, 2022. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/2/15/infographic-how-much-have-nato-members-spent-on-ukraine

Any country that contributes weapons to a combatant is fighting that combatant's enemy. NATO and America are at war with Russia and we're playing with nuclear fire.

You have a weird definition of war, it is a good thing the world doesn’t use it.

So you’re perfectly fine with Russia and Iran arming Hamas, right? Because obviously the money weapons don’t kill Jews in Israel.

Zeepers are hair-splitting propaganda monkeys.

So since Russia contributes weapons to Hamas, by your logic, that means Russia is attacking Israel

Got it

Thank you, Obama, Biden, and the Warmongers at State. We said this would happen, along with a stronger BRICS and countries divesting from the dollar.

Idiots!!!!

Could this up and coming new relationship announcement be military mutual defence treaties, i.e., if Israel or the US attack Iran, Russia would consider it an attack on sovereign Russian soil and respond with everything they have? Perhaps Russia is going to sell their oil through Iran and bypass any limited effect the Ukraine invasion sanctions are having upon that? (I know, oil is fungible and difficult to sanction when so many are willing to help Russia evade said sanctions....

You think that Russia is at war with about 55 nations globally because they lend various forms of aid to the nation that Russia is invading.

I think Russia and those 55 nations or so would disagree with your take.

You're being obtuse writing about "various forms of aid" when a large portion of that "aide" is war munitions for killing people. When you do that you are at war.

Why are Zeepers such a lying morons?
