Described as “” as it is “” after Israel’s startPreventiveLast week’s attack on Iranian military and nuclear goals, the Russian position was evident.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Moscow referred to Iran and condemned the calling “sovereign UN member state against a member of the country.”
Kremlin, whose Partnership Iran, many years ago, has demanded a diplomatic solution to the crisis.
Since the onset of the hatred of Friday, Over 220 people Iran has died in an Israeli attack, killing 24 people in the counterstrikes in Iran.
Both Iran and Russia shared the ally of former Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad and intervened on his behalf in the Syrian war until his defeat at the end of last year. Has Iran Supplied Russia with Shahed Kamikaz drones to be used in Ukrainian goals, and last year, were there Reports Russia has acquired hundreds of FATH-360 ballistic missiles from Iran, which is known to be accurate in the lower range.
“Of course, Russia has to be friends with Iran because everything is very simple because everything is very simple,” Hocheesh responded after the recent Middle East crisis was exacerbated. “If you have an enemy and have your enemy partners and allies, his partners and allies are automatically your enemies.
“There are no delusions about this, and nothing can be. Since Israel is a major ally of the United States;… Of course, we are interested in weakening Israel and helping its opponents.”
Russia is sympathetic to Iran, but the scope of his relationship should not be overcome, said Ruslan Sulenov, an independent Middle East of Azerbaijan.
Russia now manufactures its own Shahed drones under license, so its own war capabilities are not affected by the Iranian-Israel conflict, he said.
“Iranians, expecting more from Russia. They expected a large amount of aircraft, military, space technologies, not to mention the nuclear,” Sulimanov al Jajira.
“But Russia did not go ahead because it was very important to maintain a balance in the Middle East and maintain a relationship with Israel. And if Russia starts to supply weapons to Iran, no one will keep these weapons directed to Israel, and the Kremlin does not want it.”
Although the strategic partnership agreement was signed between Moscow and Tehran this year, Suleimanov noted that it does not mean that Russia is mandatory to protect Iran.
“In any vote of the UN Security Council, it is clear that Russia, with China, will stand on the side of the Islamic Republic (Iran),” he said. “However, we should not expect anything more.”
While Western-based liberal opposition is often supported by Israel, Russia is running a better way to uphold its relationship with Benjamin Netanyahu’s administration.
“A monkey has taken his grenade, we are waiting for someone else,” said Russian politician Dmitry Gudkov, who wrote on social media, referring to Iranian and Russian leadership respectively.
“Israel (or any country, for that thing) has the legal right to try to knock with the hand of a large monkey playing a nuclear grenade beside it? And I think the answer is clear.”
Russian relationships with Israel Dense.
Although the Soviet Union initially supported the creation of the state of Israel, it soon threw its weight behind the Arab countries and supported the Palestinian cause.
Today, Russia has denied Blacklist Hamas as a “terrorist organization”, although its support for Palestine is balanced by a relationship with Israel. Meanwhile, Israel is related to the safety and survival of the Russian Jewish community.
As for Syria, Russia and Israel shared a Understanding Moscow thereby silently ignored Israeli’s operations, targeting Hizbullah, supported by its ally Iranian. Israel, for its part, avoided or approving Moscow, and armed Ukraine. However, the decline in the Al-Assad administration has changed this calculus.
“Russia and Israel continues to be different interests in Syria,” Alexei Malinin, a member of the Moscow International Communication and Cooperation Center and Digoria Expert Club, noted.
“If Russia aims to ensure the safety of Syrian citizens and ensure the stability of legitimate energy, Israel has not paid attention to the legalization and legitimacy of such decisions, if Israel is aiming to maximize the maximum from potential threats. Invaded The area of Syria after the fall of the Bashar al-Assad administration. ”
“It was really important to connect with Russia to Israel because of being in Syria, because it was very difficult to carry out any skill on the Syrian territory, without communication with Tel Aviv,” said Sulaimanov. “But now such a need does not exist. Russia (Israel) requires no intimate coordination.”
Still, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Netanyahu have previously suffered a friendly relationship, recognized in A Ballet performance Together in 2016.
Russia Powerbroker?
Some analysts believe that the Israeli-Iran crisis provides Putin’s opportunity to bend his diplomatic muscle.
“Vladimir Putin has already intervened, and Russia is one of the objectively more open forums to compromise due to a constructive relationship with both countries,” Malinin said.
However, Sulaimanov, after a change in power in Syria, the Kremlin influence on the Middle East has deteriorated and it has already filled its hands.
“Russia needs intermediaries in Ukraine,” he said.
“The situation of the Middle East does not directly affect the war in Ukraine. But it is no doubt that the attention of the world community starting from the West has now been diverted from Ukraine.
Malinin acknowledged that Western support for Keiv could drop “on behalf of Israel” in a short time.
“But in this case it is unlikely to talk about something serious and large.”
