1. Russia and Iran are close strategic allies
⚠️ Will the U.S. Go to War with Russia and China After Bombing Iran?

Russia has supplied Iran with military technology, weapons, and political support. In the war in Ukraine, Iran provided Russia with Shahed attack drones, strengthening their ties even further.
🔁 So, a strike on Iran is a direct provocation against Russian interests.
2. Russia is not prepared for direct war with the U.S.
Russia is deeply engaged in Ukraine, with stretched military resources and a heavily sanctioned economy. A direct conflict with the U.S. would be catastrophic for both sides and could risk nuclear escalation — a scenario no one wants.
