Russia's Drone Diplomacy: Europe on Edge as Iran Threat Looms
Concerns mount as European allies fear Russia is gearing up to supply advanced drones to Iran, potentially shifting the balance of power in Ukraine's ongoing conflict.
The war in Ukraine has taken an alarming turn, as European allies now worry that Russia is poised to deliver a new weapon to its Iranian counterpart - drones. This development has the potential to significantly shift the dynamics of the conflict, with far-reaching implications for the entire region.
Over the past year, Iran has already provided hundreds of drones to Russia, which have been used to devastating effect against Ukrainian targets. However, the latest intelligence suggests that Russia is now taking steps to establish its own drone production facility, potentially allowing it to sidestep existing sanctions and provide Iran with even more advanced unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
