Скачать или смотреть Russia-Iran Strategic Alignment: Analysis of U.S. Military Buildup and Escalation Dynamics

Russian President Putin reaffirmed support for Iran's sovereignty on February 14, 2026, as the United States deployed the USS Gerald R. Ford to join the USS Abraham Lincoln in the Middle East, creating a dual carrier strike group presence near Iran. This analysis examines the Russia-Iran strategic partnership treaty, the limits of Russian military support demonstrated during the June 2025 conflict, current U.S. force deployments including over 30,000 personnel and advanced missile defense systems, the status of indirect nuclear negotiations in Oman, and Iranian domestic instability following protests. The video covers Trump administration statements on regime change possibilities, Netanyahu's pressure for including missile programs in any agreement, and the June 2025 "12-day war" context. Three scenarios are outlined: interim negotiated limits, sustained standoff, or military escalation through strikes or miscalculation.
