WASHINGTON – Moscow is reaffirming its ties to Tehran as a “geopolitical ally” as it seeks closer diplomatic, economic and cultural ties with the Islamic republic, according to report from Joseph Farah’s G2 Bulletin.
Deputy Speaker of the Russian State Duma and Head of the Russia-Iran Parliamentary Friendship Group Nikolai Levichev signaled that Moscow would draw even closer to Tehran in the face of increasing pressure from the West to tighten sanctions against Iran’s nuclear program.
Levichev’s reaffirmation of that relationship following a meeting with his Iranian counterpart, Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani, also may signal to the West that any effort to take military action against Iran over its nuclear program would be opposed by Moscow.
