Russia is supplying Iran with Shahed drones to use against the U.S. and Israel, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy told CNN in an interview excerpt aired on Saturday.
Zelenskiy told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria that it is “100% facts” that Iran has used Russian-made Shaheds to attack U.S. bases.
Iran pioneered the Shahed drone, a much cheaper alternative to expensive missiles. They first saw mass use in Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, where thousands of them have been launched by Russian forces since fall 2022, according to the Ukrainians.
A defeated (likely failed state) Iran would be bad for Russia, so Russia helps. A resisting Iran also means higher oil revenues for Russia, so Russia helps. There’s more reasons but these are probably enough.
It also kills American troops, which I’m sure Russia is happy for and honestly receiving an excellent deal for their investment.
Absolutely, Putin hates USA, and will do everything he can to undermine USA.
Trump’s friendliness towards Russia and Putin is 100% one way only.he did just get trump to lift oil sanctions for russia.
And with the Russian economy collapsing, Putin is desperate for that money!
Desperate enough to sacrifice an ally (Iran).
I wouldn’t be surprised that the reason USA attacked Iran, was to help Putin.
So… Why the fuck did Trump ease sanctions on Russia if they’re giving weapons to the country we’re apparently at war with?? The only answer that makes sense is corruption.
I would not be so quick as to rule out gross incompetence. It’s Trump we’re talking about after all.
It’s the gross incompetence that also makes him more susceptible to corruption.

Reportedly there are American parts in the Russian version of the Shahed drones. Now they are being used on Americans. Very shameful.
And the us is buying Russian oil. Biggest winner of this thing is Russia.
As is tradition
Ironic
Iranic.
Iraqic.

Russia’s support for Iran is just like US support for Ukraine.
Edit: Not understanding the downvotes both are illegitimate wars. Both are helping their allies. Brown vs whites shouldn’t colour the fact.
Not really, considering the US could help Ukraine massively and refuses to do so. And meanwhile Russia is unable to do much more than send a bit of intel and some drones.
You’re just shit talking Russia, which is fine, but that doesn’t change that their support of the victim of aggression (Iran) is there same type of support that the US does to Ukraine.
Zelenski standing up for the aggressor and making Ukraine a target of Iran just to please Israel is the real story no liberal is willing to discuss.
Nukes ?
Of course.
S*cker Zelensky
