U.S. warned by Russia about potential direct assaults on Iran
Heads Up, US! Stay Away from Meddling in Israel's Brawl with Iran
The Russians are sounding the alarm bells loud and clear for Uncle Sam. Russian Foreign Ministry's Deputy Minister Sergei Ryabkov, spilled the beans at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, saying that any direct interference by the American government on Israel's side in their beef with Iran could trigger a massive disruption in the Middle East.
In simpler terms, Ryabkov warned that such moves would ignite a powder keg, destabilizing the region beyond repair. He further emphasized that even tossing around such ideas in a casual conversation is a recipe for disaster.
Moscow had already given Tel Aviv a stern tongue-lashing for its aggressive moves against Iran, fired shots accusing Israel's bigwigs of driving the world toward a nuclear apocalypse. Seems like the Russians ain't too fond of Israel's military games in Iran's backyard.
Despite Russia's solidarity with Iran on the global stage, they're not planning on joining the dance. With their hands full in Ukraine and no mutual defense pact in their recent strategic partnership agreement, Russia won't be popping in to aid Iran militarily. Instead, they'll be taking a diplomatic approach, trying to steer the conflict away from regions crucial to Russian interests, like the Caucasus.
In short, Russia's not too keen on US intervention in the Iran-Israel squabble, painting it as a foolish move that could set the Middle East on fire. Meanwhile, Russia's keeping their own interests in mind, staying mum in military matters and crafting a diplomatic solution to wrangle the consequences.
- The warning from the Russian Foreign Ministry's Deputy Minister, Sergei Ryabkov, highlights the potential risks of US policy-and-legislation regarding war-and-conflicts in the Middle East, specifically the Israel-Iran conflict.
- The diplomatic approach Russia plans to take in the Iran-Israel conflict, focusing on policy-and-legislation and general news discussions, suggests that they are mindful of the implications for their own interests, particularly in regions like the Caucasus.
