Iran and Russia have long shared close ties, but their evolving alliance is now reshaping regional geopolitics and creating a stronghold for nations that seek a new democratic world order.

The Iranian foreign minister says a comprehensive strategic partnership agreement between Iran and Russia will be a step toward creating a more balanced and just world.

The Comprehensive Strategic Partnership Agreement, to be signed by Russian President Vladimir Putin and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian in Moscow on Friday, marks an unprecedented alignment between the two countries.

The US breaks off its “strategic partnership” with Georgia, condemning Tbilisi for, what it calls, leaning towards Russia.

Turkmenistan is the fourth destination of President Masoud Pezeshkian’s foreign trips after Iraq, the UN and Qatar, indicating the Central Asian nation’s priority in Iran’s foreign policy.

The presidents of Russia and China have agreed to deepen their ‘strategic partnership’, scolding the US for posing threats against their countries.

China's special envoy to the Middle East says Iran is a “special partner” of Beijing in West Asia, appreciating Tehran’s measures in the region.
