A key focus was the signing of the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership Agreement, a 20-year roadmap for strengthening bilateral ties in economics, technology, and culture.
The leaders also addressed Iran’s nuclear program and regional strategies, signaling a united front against U.S. influence, particularly with Donald Trump set to assume the presidency.
The meeting underscores Russia and Iran’s deepening alliance amid shifting global dynamics.
Russian forces have claimed a significant victory near the strategic city of Pokrovsk in Donbass, successfully capturing fortified Ukrainian positions after a fierce assault. A video released by Russia's Ministry of Defense shows the destruction of a German-made Leopard tank, hit by a missile strike. Drone footage captures the devastating moment as the missile strikes the Ukrainian tank, followed by the collapse of a nearby shelter. The attack also involved suicide drones targeting deep trenches and dugout shelters. Despite heavy casualties on both sides, Russian troops have made substantial progress, intensifying the threat to the already vulnerable Pokrovsk. The city remains a crucial supply hub for Ukrainian defenses but is increasingly under pressure from Russian advances.

President Joe Biden firmly told Russian President Vladimir Putin that Ukraine has no nuclear weapons, NATO membership for Ukraine won’t happen without significant reforms, and Russia cannot claim any part of Ukrainian territory. This statement comes amid escalating tensions in Eastern Europe, with Russia’s ongoing aggression in Ukraine and concerns over NATO’s expansion. Biden’s stance signals the U.S.’s commitment to supporting Ukraine’s sovereignty while managing diplomatic pressures to avoid further military conflict with Russia.

Donald Trump’s claimed role in brokering a Gaza ceasefire has intensified Arab American frustration with President Biden. Many feel Biden failed to secure peace despite months of opportunity, while Trump’s intervention seemingly pushed Israel to agree. The ceasefire, set to begin Sunday, follows pressure on Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu by Trump’s envoy. Arab American voters, particularly in Michigan, express anger over Biden’s handling of the war, branding him “Genocide Joe” and questioning Democratic support for Palestinian rights. Skepticism remains over the ceasefire’s durability.

As cease-fire negotiations continue in Qatar, Israeli airstrikes across Gaza have killed at least 62 Palestinians, including children and journalists. Strikes targeted a family home in Deir al-Balah, a school shelter in Gaza City, and refugee camps in Al-Nuseirat and Shati. The Israeli military confirmed hitting over 50 targets in the last 24 hours. Evacuation orders have been issued for Jabalia, intensifying the humanitarian crisis as displaced residents struggle with severe shortages of essential supplies. The violence raises concerns over the cease-fire’s viability.

IDF Reserve Brig. Gen. Amir Avivi credited President-elect Donald Trump’s stern warning as a pivotal factor in securing the Israel-Hamas cease-fire after a 15-month conflict. Avivi highlighted that Hamas, initially resistant to the deal since May, reconsidered under pressure, citing Trump’s statement that “all Hell will break out” if hostages weren’t returned by Jan. 20. Avivi also acknowledged Israel’s strategic victories over Hezbollah and Syria’s weakened stance as contributing factors. The agreement, brokered with Trump’s team, is set to take effect just before his inauguration.
