Kremlin officials on Monday announced Russian dictator Vladimir Putin and Iranian dictator Masoud Pezeshkian will on Friday to sign a “comprehensive strategic partnership” between the two belligerent and largely failed states to solidify their cooperation on inflicting misery on people living in countries within their overlapping respective spheres of influence, AFP reports.
“On 17 January, Vladimir Putin will hold talks with the President of the Islamic Republic of Iran Masoud Pezeshkian, who will come to Russia on an official visit,” said the Kremlin in a statement, adding that following the signing ceremony Putin and Pezeshkian are to discuss “prospects for the further expansion of bilateral cooperation, including in trade and investment, transport and logistics and the humanitarian sphere, as well as topical issues on the regional and international agenda.”
The new strategic partnership will probably go completely ignored by Putin’s ally, convicted felon President-Elect Trump, who hates Iran but not enough to let it ruin his friendship with Vlad.
