Deciphering the frequent meetings of Iranian and Russian officials How did the war with America bring Tehran closer to Moscow? The war between America and Israel against Iran fundamentally changed Tehran's view of Russia. In the past, there were those in Tehran who saw Moscow as an unreliable partner that benefits too much from Iran's support. But now, more than ever, Russia is seen as an important partner for Iran's military consolidation, post-war reconstruction and long-term deterrence. In October, senior officials of Iran and Russia held three high-level meetings, which indicates the high importance of relations between the two countries. This support probably strengthened the position of supporters of closeness to Moscow in Iran's security structure. The group, which once enjoyed the support of late President Ebrahim Raisi, now sees the war as confirmation of its long-standing claim: closer cooperation with Russia could have tangible strategic advantages for Iran; Including helping to circumvent sanctions, reducing diplomatic isolation and dealing with Western pressure. The details of the report are on Instagram.
