Russia Rallies Behind Iran After U.S. Strikes; Zelenskyy Slams ‘Ayatollah Putin’
United States: A rift ripples across geopolitical lines as Tehran and Moscow rally in synchronized accord following America’s missile salvo against Iranian nuclear sites. Russian emissaries swiftly decried the assault, dispatching stern signals that Iran’s atomic trajectory would not be halted, and welcomed Iran’s envoy for high-level deliberations in Moscow.
Simultaneously, Ukrainian head of state Volodymyr Zelenskyy, with sharpened rhetoric, targeted “Ayatollah Putin” via a blistering post on X — forecasting a grim path for regimes immersed in repression and ruin. With Russia shunned across western fronts for its brutal incursion into Ukraine, the Kremlin now seeks a strange credibility as global negotiator.
