Featured BREAKING NEWS: UN DECIDED TO NOT EXTEND THE ARMS EMBARGO ON IRAN

The deal may simply be a transfer of assets. In the past week, there has been a flurry of news in China that Taiwan will be unified within a year. Normally, such news would be banned.

In addition, given the European position and Iran's financial situation, China and Russia are unlikely to sell heavy fighters like the Su-35, J16.
Iran still has oil...
anyways, I doubt Iran will be interested in heavy fighters since medium fighters can cover their airspace just fine. Iran will probably be looking for production line and ToT.
 
not a chance. T129 uses US origin engines licence produced by Turkey. The US has veto power over any sell.

It's not even about that. As the US has shown in the past, any and every entity doing business with Iran will be sanctioned, if Iran is sanctioned. This means that even if the helicopter had 0 foreign parts, US would still sanction the Turkish companies making it.

Because the whole idea is to try and preserve an arms embargo against Iran.
 
Certainly! That is strictly irrelevant though, as far as Turkey selling arms to Iran is concerned. ;)
turkey will not able to sale arms to iran but russia china and many others will .for example many years ago USA blindly sanctioned Chinese russian even paksitani gov agencies and companies . these already sanctioned companies can be used now . :lol:
 
Of course. Most of the Russian military industrial complex has been sanctioned due to Crimea..and the Chinese one is a priori a non partner so...both Russia and China could care less about what US wants on this one (after all, as shown on the voting itself).

any how world is changing very fast US sanctions became a joke and not much bothered very soon countries are sick on dollor monopoly they trade in local and gold too
 
Trump used every opportunity to take potshots at EU leaders. Why does he think EU states will stand with him? Get something other than Iran embargo to boost your re-election campaign.

Why relevance do US sanctions have for bilateral relationship of Russia and Iran? The roadblock was UN embargo which is gone.

Actually, Trump had no interest in embargo on Iran. It was wish of Israel and Saudi arabia to keep sanctions. Because due to sanctions, Saudi were selling more oil and using Iranian quota in OPEC. Now alliances are changing and due to less resources and trade interest are changing. EU need cheap gas and oil and Iran is there best bet at this moment. Plus, Iran need massive investment to develop decades old infrastructure ... It's all money ..
 
A calculated move. There is a reason why this embargo was lifted. What's happening in M.E. Everything is linked to one another. Hatred is already there between IRAN and Arabs now create chaos. That's what the doctor ordered. COVID have not only taken a toll on human life but also on Economy. And whats more powerful than a pretext of war and with deep pocketed Arabs west economy will get the jump start it needs.
Isreal in UAE and Iran embargo lifted things are going to get much worse in Middle East. Yemen crisis will look like a nothing.

No relevance.

Trump administration made every effort to turn UN into a dog and pony show. The least democratic place in UN is the permanent security council member group and Nikki Haley sat there pontificating and criticizing UN. :sick:

Trump would have loved to use the news of Iran embargo extension to boost his re-election campaign but he got a snub from EU states. You reap what you sow.
 
in the past, Japan and the US were enemies. But now, they are brothers. This may be true for Iran and the US in the future
Just like case of Japan, one of them need to give up its ambitions and in case of Iran and US, none of the will. Best we can hope for is that they stop calling each other terrorists and enemies and hopefully leave each other alone.
 
The new bloc will be taking place, very soon. Apparently, parties are being set free to be armed & loaded. M.E/Gulf might get hotter than before. It all depends upon when the both sides are ready. External forces will be taking precautions and will wait for the side that falls & weak. The beneficiary will then make a move. The way it has been agreed by most of the powers, seems like plan is already made and rules are decided in mutual agreement behind closed doors. Since, major players are sitting against each other on the table, none of the parties wanted a weak side to be taken out like that. It might sound like much of a novel but I can observe how things are getting unfold. The arm race begins that means the war is coming or it can play as a deterrent but that depends upon the game plan at large.

May be sanity prevail and peace win over everything. Let's hope for the best.
