On Wednesday, Iran’s parliament ratified a 20-year strategic partnership with Russia, as reported by state media. This agreement signifies a strengthened bilateral relationship, particularly in defense cooperation.
President Vladimir Putin of Russia and his Iranian counterpart, Masoud Pezeshkian, officially signed the strategic partnership document on January 17. The pact received approval from the Russian legislature in April. Although it does not include a mutual defense clause, it outlines collaborative efforts to address shared military threats, enhance military-technical cooperation, and engage in joint military exercises.
Since the onset of the Ukraine conflict in 2022, military relations between Iran and Russia have intensified. Western nations have alleged that Iran has supplied missiles and drones to support Russian operations in Ukraine; however, Tehran denies these claims.
The strategic agreement also encompasses various provisions aimed at enhancing economic collaboration, particularly by promoting direct interbank cooperation and increasing the use of their national financial products.
Additionally, last week saw the implementation of a free trade agreement between Iran and the Russian-led Eurasian Economic Union, resulting in reduced tariffs designed to facilitate trade between the two nations, both of which are currently facing significant Western sanctions.
