Russia’s image as a reliable ally has suffered yet another blow as Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed in joint U.S.–Israeli strikes across Iran on Feb. 28, marking a fresh outbreak of hostilities in the Middle East.
So far, Moscow’s response to the U.S.–Israeli bombardment of hundreds of targets in Iran has been limited to diplomatic support for Tehran, even as U.S. President Donald Trump has openly called for a change of regime.
The latest development highlights Iran’s junior role in its partnership with unsteady Russia, while Moscow’s focus on the war in Ukraine leaves it little means to rush to Tehran’s aid.



Iran was selling weapons to Russia, not the other way round. Russia had no capacity to export any weapons these last two years, as *emphasized by their attempts to buy back the S-400s they sold to Turkey or having to import North Korean artillery.

Thanks
Perhaps the last couple of years. But even then they could share blueprints, technology and such.
hi, this was the other way round as the other poster said. Iran has/had the higher tech drones etc
Perhaps with drones, but there are so much other advanced tech when it comes to weapons, aren’t there? There is also space program.
