Russia President Vladimir Putin won’t protect Iran if the US starts bombing. This was disclosed by the country’s Deputy Foreign Minister Andrey Rudenko. This is coming as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently demanded a “Libya-style” solution with Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei over Tehran’s nuclear program. While meeting with Netanyahu in the Oval Office on Monday, US President Donald Trump announced direct talks between Washington and Tehran will begin on Saturday. Trump also warned that if diplomacy fails, Iran would be in “great danger” and “can’t have a nuclear weapon.” However, Rudenko believes a war would have serious “consequences” but admitted Russia has no obligation to defend Tehran under a potential US attack despite the two countries having close military ties. Recall that Putin and his Iranian counterpart Masoud Pezeshkian had in January signed a strategic partnership treaty to deepen military and political ties between both countries. “I believe that in the event of a conflict between Iran and the US, which we aim to avoid at all costs due to the potentially disastrous consequences for the region, we do not want Russia to be drawn into yet another conflict resolution,” Rudenko said as he addressed the State Duma on Tuesday. |
