Gilbert Doctorow: Attack on Iran Hardens Russia's Stance on Ukraine

Dr. Gilbert Doctorow discusses why the attack on Iran will harden Russia's position. Putin's approach of a slow war of attrition and diplomatic engagement with Trump has met increasing opposition, as the arguments advance for more aggressive alternatives to put a quick end to the war. The attempted decapitation strike on Iran has sent shockwaves through Moscow, as there are no more rules, and there is a belief that allowing the weakening of Russia's deterrence has become an existential threat. Gilbert Doctorow's new book "War Diaries. Volume 1: The Russia-Ukraine War, 2022-2023" is now available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/War-Diaries-Russia-Ukraine-2022-2023/dp/B0F9VK1WM2 Follow Prof. Glenn Diesen: Substack: https://glenndiesen.substack.com/ X/Twitter: https://x.com/Glenn_DiesenPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/glenndiesen Support the research by Prof. Glenn Diesen: PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/glenndiesenBuy me a Coffee: buymeacoffee.com/gdiesengGo Fund Me: https://gofund.me/09ea012fBooks by Prof. Glenn Diesen: https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B09FPQ4MDL
