After Saudi attacks, Russia makes its regional presence felt

LONDON - In the two weeks since attacks blamed on missiles or drones shut down half of Saudi Arabia’s oil output, the country that has arguably moved most deftly to position itself for any upside is Russia.

“Recent events in the world have shown that the effective fight against reconnaissance and strike UAVs, as well as other air attack weapons, is becoming increasingly important to ensure the protection of high-priority facilities,” Rosoboronexport said in a press release issued days after the Saudi attacks.

“All the political leaders of Saudi Arabia have to do is take a wise decision, as Iran did by buying the S-300 missile system, and as President Erdogan did when he bought Russia’s latest S-400 Triumph anti-aircraft system,” he said, prompting chuckles from President Hassan Rouhani alongside him.

“If I were the Saudis, I’d be beating a path to Moscow, beating a path to Beijing, to find somebody more reliable than the United States,” said Kori Schake, deputy director-general of the International Institute for Strategic Studies and a former director for defense strategy at the National Security Council.

hujodaddy1 Hmmm.. Interesting 🤔

they have arm deals

Saudi Arabia variating allies is a successful policy.

The Saudi attacks on Yemen? I would hope someone would intervene to put an end to that war of Aggression by a regime who murders journalists with bone-saws.

And Iran keeps carrying a lot of its weight with the Middle East.

What doesn’t Putin have his fingers in?
