There are
reports about Russia supporting Iran with satellite reconnaissance data and information on US bases in the Persian Gulf area. Also, the direction of Geran/Shahed drone deliveries appears reversed.
Russia has a lot to gain from the war against Iran. The global oil price is rising and with Mr Trump having given Russia a break from the sanctions, previously scarce money is again flowing into Mr Putins coffers, supporting his war against Ukraine. Also, Ukraine is receiving less equipment for their self-defense, the lack of Patriot missiles is sorely felt.
So Mr Trump not only has Iran attacked but also comes to the aid of Irans supporters. At the same time and by the same actions, he supports financing the Russian war against Ukraine, undermining the European efforts to support the Ukrainians, while
complaining that they will not come to clear the Strait of Hormuz for him. And still, American weapons are sold to Europe for delivery to Ukraine.
Here is an Austrian caricaturists view on this.
(Subtitle: Putin is ready for negotiations again. Putin: "Well, Donald, it is my pleasure to help the worlds economy out. How much Ukraine do i get for this?")
I freely admit that I fail to understand the reasoning behind this but am very interested to learn if someone can explain.
