China and Iran openly support Russia’s view on the Ukraine conflict. Such an opinion in national interest statement journalist Mark Episcopal.

Episcopos states that Russian President Vladimir Putin’s visit to Tehran “signs to a disturbing phenomenon – attempts by European and American politicians to form a united global front against the Kremlin”, while many non-Western countries remain neutral.

The grain deal showed that the West’s campaign to isolate Russia economically and politically had failed.

“I think Russian officials will promote the agreement as proof that they are not really isolated, that they are still a serious player in the Middle East,” expert John Drennan of the US Institute of Peace told CNBC. .

In addition, an important result of the talks in Tehran in terms of image was the agreement of Turkey, Iran and Russia on Syria. After a meeting in Iran’s capital, Putin said Moscow and Tehran had overlapping views on “many issues”. As Iran’s top leader Ali Khamenei has emphasized, NATO “would have started a war with Russia on the pretext of returning Crimea if the alliance in Ukraine had not been stopped.”

Views on Russia’s isolation after Tehran

Four days ago, on July 20, the Chinese newspaper Global Times described Putin’s talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi as a “counter-coup” against US attempts to defend its dominance in the Middle East.

The American magazine Foreign Policy, on the other hand, wrote that the visits of Russian and US Presidents Vladimir Putin and Joe Biden to the Middle East showed the countries’ support for Moscow’s actions in the formation of a multipolar world.

Journalists from the Hong Kong edition of the South China Morning Post (SCMP) said that Western states’ calls for unification against Russia and Putin did not find an answer in other countries of the world.

There is also an opposing view. John Kirby, strategic communications coordinator for the US National Security Council, said the White House viewed Putin’s visit to Iran as “an indication of the degree of isolation of Russia and its president.”

“Now they have to turn to Iran for help,” Kirby said. Press Secretary of the President of the Russian Federation Dmitry Peskov denied the statements of the American official. “I disagree. This is a fundamentally wrong assessment,” he said.

Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin also said in the past that Russia is inextricably linked with the whole world – so it is impossible to isolate it.

Russia’s leadership plans to make more foreign trips this year, a sign of the failure of US efforts to “cancel” Russia. This was stated on July 21 by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry Maria Zakharova.

“For the fall, intensive trips of the Russian leadership are planned, and this is connected not with the illusion that Washington is amusing itself, but with the reality of what is happening,” said Zakharova. She stressed that the US will never be able to “cancel” Russia.
