Ukraine's New Iran War Deal is a Nightmare for Russia - Paul Warburg



Ukraine has reached an arms deal with Middle Eastern countries, proving that the Iran War has already caused a change in the global order. As the United States conducts a successful offensive military campaign, questions have begun to arise about their long-term defensive capabilities in the face of masses of Iranian Shahed drones. The answer exists...in Ukraine. For this reason, the United States, along with Gulf countries, began reaching out to Ukraine for aid early on in the war. But this seemingly small move has much larger global implications, and it's part of a shift in the global arms trade that has already been underway for several years. I explain the broader geopolitics of the Iran War, and how it ties in to Russia's war against Ukraine, and the future of the U.S. arms trade.
