Iran is a little different in that they are surrounded by a ton of regional powers that all have long histories of blood feuds and war with each other and foreign powers (like Russia and the U.S.). Their alliance is held together by their collective hatred for U.S. foreign policy dating back to the Cold War. The U.S. and U.S.S.R. made some very morally questionable alliances in its efforts to limit the expansion of Communism/Capitalism, and many of those consequences are still impacting those countries today. Because of that, I don't think the alliance will completely dissolve between them, although blaming the U.S. for systemic problems in their economy is more for their internal politics than it is a coherent community-building policy or an actual fix.

There are no "alliances" in the world outside the context of war.

But claiming that they now want your capital is absurd self victimization and cry bullying.

There's a phenomenon I've noticed recently, whereby every alliance in the world is analyzed using what I call the NATO litmus test i.e this alliance doesn't look like NATO (Which in itself has never been tested so...) so it will definitely fail, To say this is a wrong way of looking at things is an understatement, every alliance in this world has it's own unique objectives and reasons for existence e.g BRICS, a trade alliance is analysed like it's a military grouping, which it is NOT. BRICS was to come along eventually, countries in the global majority are called the global majority for a reason ,they are the majority and each year their economies grow and trade volumes between them grow ,they often have very different objectives to the global minority countries and the current system as it is was set up to cater to the interests of the global minority countries and these countries are unwilling to reform the system to accommodate the growing needs of these countries especially with regards to trade so you have BRICS forming. BRICS is not a rival even to the west, it's just an alliance created to cater to the needs of developing countries. The reality is Russia and Iran don't need to have a NATO-like alliance , not even close, they are countries that are basically untouchable , no one in their right minds will ever try to invade Russia or even Iran, the juice ain't worth the squeeze. Iran is 3 times the size of Texas, you'd need a million men at least to get to Iran , and bring them by ship and look for areas to deploy them and find a way to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuke before you finish their deployment so tough luck. As long as Russia is getting Shahed drone tech from Iran, to use in Ukraine and Iran gets drone and missile factories built in Russia where no one can dare strike them, they will be fine. It's that simple, Israel/the US can shoot down a plane from Iraq to Lebanon/Syria but they won't dare touch a chinese transport plane under a Russian flag from Yekaterinburg to Beirut/Damascus, they won't even attempt to search it and that works for the Iranians

The first part of this video about the Zangezur corridor is misleading. Armenia is open to allowing transport links from Azerbaijan to its enclave, Nakhchivan, but insists that the corridor must respect its sovereignty and jurisdiction. Azerbaijan, on the other hand, seeks an extraterritorial corridor guarded by Russian forces, which Armenia finds unacceptable. No nation would agree to relinquish control over its own roads. Additionally, Azerbaijan’s proposal poses a threat to Armenia's border with Iran, which both countries cannot tolerate, as it would cut off Armenia from its vital connection to Iran. The Armenian government has proposed a "Crossroads of Peace" project aimed at enhancing transportation links in the region while respecting each nation’s territorial integrity. The video inaccurately states that Armenia signed a peace treaty under duress. During the war, while Armenia did sign a treaty, it did not express that it was pressured to do so. Furthermore, the treaty does not include any clause for Russian border guards on the corridor; it simply calls for the opening of transport links, which Armenia supports.

[@Deadpoolion]

It is strange that the author describes the cooperation between Azerbaijan and Turkey, namely Turkey has rearmed the army of Azerbaijan and supplied it with drones which were very helpful in the Mountain conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh. And naturally Iran is not satisfied with the strengthening of Turkey on the borders of Iran.

Things will look very different in 10-15 years; there is just so much potential for cooperation between Russia and Iran.

Remember that this "warming" started long before Pezeshkian, and before the pager operation and the elimination of Nasrallah. At the time Iran's geopolitical position looked much better. Now they're just continuing some high-level contacts, but it's unlikely that their ties will keep improving significantly in the near future (though anything could happen - I don't claim to know about the future).

It appears that Iranian/Russian relationship does not or cannot fit within your analogy. I feel it’s quite natural with your background. Iran and Russia are completely independent and they develop relationship only on necessary basis. Otherwise, it’s not a give-and-take type relationship. The importance is that they negotiate when they feel necessary. Western type relationship has shown the current corrupted situations. The world is learning to walk away and ignore that kind-of a relationship.

I tought that India is also an important and large market for Russian oil.

[@CosmicValkyrie]

It is. We are a major market for Russia and will only increase trade throughput.

[@AmirPounding]

it is, but important and large is not really profitable, India (and others) is taking advantage of the fact that Russia is struggling to sell their oil to more profitable and expensive markets like Europe, East Asia and America, India is a giant booming market but can not afford to pay the same prices that Russia wishes to be paid

[@razahassan8756]

It is. It doesn't need to be mentioned all the time if it is not relevant to the topic.

[@eddyr1041]

[@KHMERMUY]

If it’s weak like this guy said, why a lot of Iran drones in Russia and Russia S400 in Iran😂😂

[@saint_alucardwarthunder759]

Not only that, Russia has sent Su-35s

Boushehr is in south of Iran. Not west.

Don't tell me the "new best friends" are already having a hiccup... 😉

[@jackphillips4305]

If TLDR says the Russia and Iran alliance is weak then you know for sure their alliance is stronger than ever. TLDR gets it wrong most of the time.

[@mohammadsoori9831]

The Claim that Pezeshkian would evert decide anything in Iran while Khamenei is alive is laughable and childish.

I know why ukraine invaded the kurks region. It's not too far from the main road corridor to their northern ports to the Arctic. Cut that off, and you've isolated this military port. Strategically brilliant.
