BIG MOVE: IRAN PARLIAMENT BACKS 20-YEAR PACT WITH RUSSIA
Iran and Russia both hold a strong influence on shaping the region’s future.
Iran’s parliament approves a strategic agreement for 20 years with Russia.
Iran and Russia both face sanctions from the West, and now both countries have joined hands to counter this problem and other problems of mutual interest.
Russia signed this agreement in January and agreed to work on the project of mutual interest.
This agreement not only shows a long-term commitment but also a need that both countries require right now to survive the sanctions and other problems as well. Along with military and infrastructure plans, the deal also includes working together on sharing technology and teaming up in global organizations like the UN, etc.
This agreement may prove a setback for the Western world, as both countries have faced many sanctions for the past few years.
Expert says this agreement could shape the power shift in the region of Middle East and Central Asia. The approval from parliament provides that this agreement is built to last long.
