The supply of UAVs indicates the strengthening of cooperation between Iran and the Russian Federation, which before that were ancient allies. Experts warn of the danger posed by the US return to the nuclear restraint agreement, from which the country came out in 2018. The process involves the removal of some sanctions from Iran in exchange for the fact that Tehran will suspend a nuclear weapon.
According to the opponents of the agreement, it will also allow Russia to bypass sanctions through Iranian authorities, for example, to ship oil through the Union country and to strengthen its army, which is fighting in Ukraine. After the introduction of unprecedented sanctions, Russia is increasingly turning to Iran for weapons. In July, the White House publicly stated that the Iranian authorities planned to send a large number of combat drones to the Russian Federation.
According to Americans, Russian representatives soon visited Iran to agree on supply. Earlier they wrote that Iran could send Russia the first drones in exchange for fighters. According to unofficial sources, the UAV Party was delivered to the Russian Federation with pilots, which will be taught to handle the Su-35 aircraft. Advisor to Presidential Office Alexei Arestovich, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation already uses Iranian drones in Ukraine.
