Relations with Iran have always been difficult for the Russian leadership under the leadership of Putin, but in the absence of real “friends” in the international arena, one can try and boast of friendship with Iran, for the domestic consumer, of course. Putin plans to hold talks not only with Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi, but also with Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. The declared agenda is the Syrian issue, but in reality Putin is going to discuss a much wider range of issues. It is important for Putin to convince the Iranian leadership not to agree to American terms on the “nuclear deal” and to use his influence on the Iranian leadership on this issue as a lever of pressure, or rather, a bargaining chip in bargaining with the United States. Recall, according to our information, it was Putin who lobbied for Trump’s decision to announce the country’s withdrawal from the agreement on the Iranian nuclear program. Now the task of the President of Russia is to prevent the rapprochement of the positions of the United States and Iran.

In general, it is paradoxical, of course, but there are two people in world politics who deceived Putin many times and always acted in their own interests, often frankly spitting on the interests of Putin and, as a result, Russia, these are Lukashenka and Erdogan. actIndeed, it is amusing to watch how every time Putin, with the same enthusiasm, goes to negotiations with Erdogan or Lukashenko, and as a result, having received a lot of promises that no one is going to fulfill, then laments that he was thrown. Yes, and there is no doubt that the main beneficiaries of the fall of the Putin regime on the world stage will be China, Turkey and … the Republic of Belarus, and not a united West, as many believe. And if for the West the collapse of Russia with a huge nuclear potential is a nightmare, then for China, Turkey and
