Putin and Iran: Secret Alliance on the brink!
Putin and Iran: Secret Alliance on the brink!
In January 2025,In a significant step, Russia and Iran signed a strategic partnership contract that forms the basis for more intensive economic, political and military cooperation. This contract comes at a time when Iran is under considerable pressure due to increasing tensions with Israel. According to Oe24 , however, the planned alliance could be put to the test, since Russia is very committed to it in the Ukraine conflict.
The new contract comprises 47 articles and covers areas such as military, politics, trade, research, education and culture. The development of military-technical cooperation is particularly emphasized. Both countries also have an outlook on accompanying cooperation in the security area, whereby the goal is to strengthen mutual support in the suppression of dissidents, reports Tagesspiegel .
challenges for Russia
Vladimir Putin, who invited Iranian President Massud Peseschkian to Moscow, sees himself in a perplexed situation. The visible support of Iran could burden the relationship with the United States, especially President Donald Trump. On the other hand, a break with Tehran could weaken Russia's credibility in global alliances. This emphasizes ZDF .
The military cooperation between the two countries is characterized by distrust. Iran urgently needs modern weapon technologies, including combat aircraft and defense systems. Despite years of discussions about possible arms deliveries, Russia has so far taken no concrete steps in this regard. This reluctance is partly due to the fact that Russia's armed forces and production capacities are strongly bound in the Ukraine conflict.
prospects and geopolitical implications
The support of Tehrans by Moscow has already adopted concrete forms in the past: Iran provided Russia drone technology, while both countries are trying to free themselves from the spell of international sanctions. Iran has increasingly expressed the urge to build economic relationships with European countries while Russia is trying to get the economic effects of the sanctions under control.
In the population of Iran, mixed feelings are shown compared to the growing cooperation with Russia. While some appreciate the support in military and economic questions, others want an approach to the West, in particular due to the difficult economic situation, which is caused by the existing sanctions. Both countries therefore face the challenge of finding a balance between loyalty and their own national interests.
Overall, the future direction of this partnership will decisively depend on the geopolitical developments in the Middle East and the relationships with Western nations. This dynamic could not only influence the stability of the two countries, but also have far -reaching consequences for the entire region.
