Putin Declares Iran a Top Priority | Israel Furious as Putin and Pezeshkian Meet For The First Time

In a highly anticipated first meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, Putin has declared Iran a "top priority" for Russia, igniting tensions with Israel.

The meeting took place during a regional summit in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, against a backdrop of escalating conflicts in the Middle East and Iran's growing military support for Russia amid the ongoing war in Ukraine.

During their discussions, Putin emphasised the close alignment of interests between Moscow and Tehran, particularly in the face of Western sanctions and geopolitical challenges.

This declaration marks a significant shift in Russia's foreign policy as it seeks to strengthen its ties with Iran, a move that has drawn immediate condemnation from Israel.
