Shoigu was quoted by the Interfax news agency as stating, “We are committed to a comprehensive range of planned activities, despite opposition from the United States and its Western allies. The futility of sanctions pressure on Russia and Iran is evident, while the interaction between Russia and Iran is reaching unprecedented levels.”
The Russian Defence Minister held discussions with Iran’s top security official, Ali Akbar Ahmadian, during his visit to Tehran. Their talks encompassed a wide range of topics, with particular attention given to developments in the Caucasus region, as reported by Iran’s Nour News.
Furthermore, Iran’s Tasnim news agency disclosed that Sergei Shoigu visited the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Force during his stay in Tehran. During this visit, he engaged with Amirali Hajizadeh, the head of the Revolutionary Guards Aerospace Force. The IRGC showcased Iran’s drones, missile systems, and air defence capabilities to the Russian Defence Minister during this tour.
These recent developments underscore the growing partnership and military cooperation between Russia and Iran, which appear to be strengthening despite opposition from many Western nations. The visit and high-level meetings between officials from both countries signify their commitment to expanding their strategic ties.
