The agreement with Iran was developed for several years, and the Russian Foreign Ministry at the beginning of 2022 claimed that a “major new interstate agreement” was completed, without giving details.
Russia and Iran intend to sign a new strategic partnership agreement. This may happen before the inauguration of US President-elect Donald Trump. Newsweek writes about this on Wednesday, December 25, citing a statement by the spokesman of the Iranian Foreign Ministry, Esmail Baghai.
According to him, Tehran and Moscow will sign this agreement “at the end of January.”
The new agreement, which could be finalized days before Trump’s inauguration on January 20, signals an attempt by the two countries to join forces in the face of growing isolation on the world stage.
As the publication recalls, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov previously said that the updated agreement “will formalize the obligations of the parties for close defense cooperation and cooperation with the interests of regional and international peace and security.”
The new bilateral agreement will replace the 20-year strategic agreement signed by the countries in 2001 and extended into 2020.
Let’s remember that Iran, contrary to international requirements, has again increased its uranium reserves, enriched almost to the level of weapons level.
The media also reported that Iran’s nuclear program is military-oriented. Information from the intelligence services of the Netherlands, Sweden, Germany and Denmark indicates that Tehran has plans to create nuclear weapons.
