    That’s an insane claim. Nobody will help Iran. Iran has no real friends, not even Russia.

      That’s not how the world works. You could’ve just said “the current non-Western-aligned regime is not valuable enough to salvage by other non-Western-aligned countries” or that “the cost-benefit analysis makes no sense”. Just saying.

        WTF? NO!
        While that may be somewhat true for instance for China, Russia is borderline bankrupt both economically and politically. Same as Iran.

        It’s not a matter of cost benefit, when you simply don’t have any resources to spare.
        And secondly, I very much doubt Russia would ever dare challenging USA.
        Russia only has about a tenth the military, economic and industrial power USA has.
