The war with Iran demonstrated a truth that is always understood after the fight begins: military action is always practice, not theory.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The United States developed a plan for an air strike and the destruction of the Islamic Republic’s military potential, but in the first days of the war, it spent millions of dollars fighting Iranian “shaheeds” – the same shaheeds that Ukrainians “met” in the first months of Russia’s war against Ukraine and who have continued to terrorize our country for the fifth year.<\/p>\n

And, by the way, back then, in 2022, I wrote that the Iranians were supplying drones to the Russians for a reason and not even for the money. Ukraine turned out to be a real training ground for Iran for practicing future wars in the Middle East. The Iranians were helping their ally in the Kremlin \u2013 and at the same time learning themselves.<\/p>\n

And so these new wars began – and it turned out that Iran’s opponents were unable to prepare for them and fell not only into a security trap, but also into a financial trap. The very appeal to Ukraine with a request to help in the fight against Iranian drones is good proof of this.<\/p>\n

Four years of the Russian-Ukrainian war are an important experience for both armies. And we can say that today modern warfare is practiced both in Moscow and in Kyiv. Only Russia plays for a different team. It helps Iran and North Korea, conducts joint military exercises with China, and is interested in destabilizing Europe. The Russians will help the Iranians strike American targets, not explain to the American military how to defend themselves from enemy attacks.<\/p>\n\t\t
