Russia Warns U.S. Against Military Action Against Iran
MOSCOW - Russia's Foreign Ministry on Tuesday criticized the United States for what it called over-reliance on force and warned Washington against military action against Iran.
But in a major review of foreign policy priorities, the ministry said Russia was ready to cooperate to end global crises if Washington treats it as an equal partner.
The statement reflects Russia's growing confidence and economic clout, and appears to be a signal to Washington that, while the two nations can work together, Russia will not always follow the U.S. lead. It also plays to national pride in advance of parliamentary and presidential elections.
Russia criticized what it called "the creeping American strategy of dragging the global community into a large-scale crisis around Iran," saying that Iran helps maintain stability in Afghanistan and Central Asia.
Can Russia feed its people yet? Oh yeah, they can. Because they keep selling weapons to people that want to wipe Israel and the United States off the map. Russia needs to not worry about the Global War on Terror. It's been proven they care nothing about it. They should though, they have been victims themselves.
Also, what's this nonsense about Iran helping to maintain stability in Afghanistan and Central Asia? They can't even maintain stability in their own country.
