Russia, Iran To Ink Partnership On Military Cooperation, Trade And Energy
By Stefan J. Bos, Chief International Correspondent Worthy News
MOSCOW/BUDAPEST (Worthy News) – Moscow has confirmed that Russian President Vladimir Putin and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian will sign “a long-awaited comprehensive strategic partnership pact” amid growing ties between the two nations.
The Kremlin said the agreement, which will have far-reaching implications for military cooperation, trade, and energy, will be signed after the two leaders of Russia and Iran meet in Moscow on January 17.
They will also discuss options for further expanding ties between Moscow and Tehran, including trade and investment, transport and logistics, and humanitarian spheres, the Kremlin said.
In October, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov confirmed that the strategic partnership pact between Moscow and Tehran would include “closer defense cooperation.”
The closer military ties between Russia and Iran were due to be closely watched by governments, including in Israel and Ukraine: While Iran attacked Israel, Ukraine faced thousands of Iranian-made Shahed attack drones, also known as “kamikaze” drones, during its nearly three-year-war against Russia’s invading army.
Putin and Pezeshkian were expected to talk about these and what Russian officials called “regional and international issues.”
Russia cultivated closer ties with Iran and other countries hostile towards the United States and its allies, such as North Korea, since the start of the Ukraine war in February 2022.
