The White House is ignoring evidence that Russia is assisting Iran because Washington trusts Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Axar.az informs that this was told by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky speaking in an interview with Alastair Campbell on The Rest is Politics podcast.

The US has ignored compelling evidence that Russia has been helping Iran to target US bases in the Middle East because it trusts Vladimir Putin, according to the Ukrainian president.

“Russian military satellites had photographed critical energy infrastructure objects in the Gulf states and in Israel, as well as the locations of US army bases across the region. The Kremlin passed details and images to the Iranian regime. I’ve said this publicly. The problem is they trust Putin. And it’s a pity,” he said.
