A senior Russian senator's warning to America about the war against Iran Alexei Pushkov, a member of the Constitutional Committee of the Russian Federation Council, published a message on his Telegram channel on Thursday afternoon, saying: The renewal of fighting in the regions will bring the war to a new level with negative consequences for the countries of the region, the global economy and the United States itself. The new escalation of tensions will not allow the US to hand over the Islamic Republic of Iran, but will lead to additional costs for the US and other countries in the region.
