US warns Iran to supply drones to Russia

This will include hundreds of drones with various applications: not just drones that perform reconnaissance flights, but also drones that can be used as weapons.

America knows little about time. “Some may have already been issued, or they may be coming very soon,” says Sullivan. The defense adviser is aware that Iran began training Russian soldiers in early July. He should help them on their way with Iranian drones.

Increasing oil exports

The White House communications come days before President Joe Biden’s visit to the Middle East. This will be his first visit as the head of the state. On Wednesday he will visit Israel, an ally. Then hold on US President’s plane Stopped in Saudi Arabia, one of the West’s main oil suppliers. Biden will ask the Saudis to make an extra effort. Higher oil exports will help lower oil prices in the West.

Biden is already growing something with his statements about Iran goodwillL. The Saudis see Iran as an important competitor in their region. For them, Iran was high on the agenda of the meeting with the US.

The plane crashed

Iran has moved closer and closer to the Kremlin in recent years. Then relations with the US went in the opposite direction. This has come to a serious development under President Trump. For example, he pulled the plug on a crucial nuclear deal and the US military expelled Qassem Soleimani, head of Iran’s elite al-Quds Brigades.

At the same time, Ukraine and Iran split. In 2020, Iran accidentally shot down a Ukrainian airliner that took off from the capital Tehran. 176 people were killed, including many Iranians, Canadians and Ukrainians.
