Of course Putin and Russia LOVE the Iran deal. Think about it. Russia will be able to supply Iran with uranium. Where will they be mining it? Well, thanks to the Obama regime, right here in the good old USA! So well be providing the nuclear fuel, for Russia to profit from selling that fuel to IranFor the Russians, this is about far more than just making some money on selling stuff to the Iranians or whoever. They are currently on the move seeking to make a major comeback on the world stage following their humiliation over the Soviet Union collapse. They have never had a better opportunity than now, with Obama in the WH, to do just that. And he is (willingly) paving the way for them with his various deals on missile defense and nukes. Obama basically shares with Moscow the same "new international order" vision. ie, weaker US, stronger Russia and China.

Russia backs Shia Iran as a counter to Sunni Saudi Arabia. The Sunnis have been Russia's problem (usually backed by Saudi Arabia) and not the Shia who tend to side with the Russians as in Syria.
After all this time in the middle east I am always surprised at how the Sunni/Shia rift is just not understood by foreign policy watchers.
