Russia is supplying Iran with Shahed drones to use against the U.S. and Israel, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy told CNN in an interview excerpt aired on Saturday.
Zelenskiy told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria that it is “100% facts” that Iran has used Russian-made Shaheds to attack U.S. bases.
Iran pioneered the Shahed drone, a much cheaper alternative to expensive missiles. They first saw mass use in Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, where thousands of them have been launched by Russian forces since fall 2022, according to the Ukrainians.
So… Why the fuck did Trump ease sanctions on Russia!? The only answer that makes sense is corruption.
I would not be so quick as to rule out gross incompetence. It’s Trump we’re talking about after all.
It’s the gross incompetence that also makes him more susceptible to corruption.
