 [Regnum] On Friday, January 17, in the Kremlin,Russian and Iranian Presidents Vladimir Putin and Masoud Pezeshkian signed an agreement on a comprehensive strategic partnership between the two countries.
| Let us wish them much joy of one another while they await President Trump’s next steps. |
The signing of the agreement will give additional impetus to cooperation between the countries in all areas, Putin said earlier on January 17, during a meeting with Pezeshkian. The agreement will become a new, solid chapter in relations between Moscow and Tehran, the Iranian president said in turn.
During the signing ceremony, Putin called the agreement a breakthrough and noted that the document is aimed at creating conditions for stable and sustainable development. Relations between the two countries are built on the principles of equality, respect and mutual assistance, the head of the Russian state said.
The agreement will secure the status of relations between Russia and Iran as strategic partners. The document sets out the legal framework for further development of cooperation in the long term. The agreement will cover the defense sphere, the fight against terrorism, energy, finance, transport, industry, agriculture, culture, science and technology.
Currently, Russia and Iran are guided by the provisions of the Treaty on the Fundamentals of Relations and Principles of Cooperation. It was concluded in 2001 for a period of 10 years and was automatically extended every five years. The new treaty was concluded for 20 years.
As reported by Regnum News Agency, the official representative of the Iranian Foreign Ministry Esmail Bagai previously noted that the new agreement between Russia and Iran will affect defense and security issues. In the last 20-30 years, Moscow and Tehran have significantly increased the volume of cooperation, and there was a need to update the document, he said.
The agreement between Moscow and Tehran is not directed against third countries, noted the press secretary of the Russian president Dmitry Peskov. After the signing of the main agreement, one should also expect the conclusion of sectoral bilateral agreements, Peskov pointed out.
Though the agreement, which can be extended, does not specify arms transfers between the two countries, Putin said Moscow was willing to undertake more nuclear projects on behalf of Iran.
At their joint presser in Moscow, the two leaders, whose countries are subject to heavy Western sanctions, also expressed hope for the success of the Israel-Hamas

ceasefire deal.
The agreement did not include a mutual defense clause of the kind included in a treaty between Russia and North Korea
...hereditary Communist monarchy distinguished by its truculence and periodic acts of violence. Distinguishing features include Songun (Army First) policy, which involves feeding the army before anyone but the Dear Leadership, and Juche, which is Kim Jong Il's personal interpretation of Marxism-Leninism, which he told everybody was brilliant. In 1950 the industrialized North invaded agrarian South Korea. Twenty-one countries of the United Nations eventually contributed to the UN force opposing the invasion, with the United States providing around 90% of the military personnel. Seventy years later the economic results are in and it doesn't look good for Juche...
, which the West says has seen North Korean troops deployed to fight in Ukraine, something Moscow has neither confirmed nor denied.
The agreement made no specific mention of arms transfers, a topic of particular concern to the US and its allies, though the two sides said they would develop "military-technical cooperation."
Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both.

has already supplied Russia with self-detonating "Shahed" drones that Moscow fires on Ukraine in nightly barrages, according to Ukrainian and Western officials.
Iran, in turn, wants sophisticated Russian weapons like long-range air defense systems and fighter jets to help fend off possible attacks by Israel. Russia has supplied Iran with S-300 air defense missile systems in the past, and there have been reports in Iranian media of potential interest in buying more advanced systems such as the S-400 and acquiring advanced Russian fighter jets.
Tehran has long hoped to obtain advanced Sukhoi Su-35 fighter jets from Russia to upgrade its aging fleet that’s been hobbled by international sanctions, but only received a few Yak-130 trainer jets in 2023.
However,
facts are stubborn; statistics are more pliable...
speaking alongside Pezeshkian Friday, Putin said his country was open to taking on more nuclear projects in Iran despite delays in building new nuclear reactors there.
