The Kremlin said on Tuesday that a Ukrainian attack on an Iranian vessel in the Caspian Sea should be considered an assault on Iran itself and showed how important it was to eliminate what it said was the threat from Kyiv.
Iran's Foreign Ministry on Saturday condemned the Ukrainian attack, saying it resulted in an explosion that killed one sailor and injured another. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Kyiv had struck vessels used in military cargo shipments involving Iran.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov on Tuesday accused Ukraine of widening the geographical scope of what he called "terrorist attacks."

Well, Iran certainly had it coming, with all their Shaheed drones that have killed thousands of Ukrainians.
This is kind of a World War. You got Ukraine, Russia, North Korea, USA, Israel, Lebanon, S.A., Kuwait, Oman, Yemen, UAE, Qatar. With China operating behind the scenes... Did I moss anybody?
In retrospect, was it a good idea for the Obama Administration to foment a coup d’état in Ukraine? Especially after promising the Russians NATO would not go East?
Chutzpah, Russia accusing Ukraine of ""terrorist attacks", while launching daily attacks on Ukraine's civilians with hundreds of Shahed drones and missiles.
CCTV shows moment of deadly missile strike on Ukraine's Kharkiv
No.
Still pushing that lie? The better question is was it a good idea for Putin to invade a country that was not threatening it? Given the price that Russia is paying for this war, was it worth it?
Feel free to post the treaty in which NATO "promised not to go east". Doesn't exist, except for the treaty which bans NATO in the area of former East Germany, but I commend you for endlessly parroting Putin's propaganda.
Another Z-penis attempt to draw the U.S. into his/MI6/vampiressVicky war ..
Ukraine did more than not threaten Russia, they actively disarmed, by handing over their nukes, missiles and long range bombers to Russia, which resulted in Putin invading and using those same missiles and bombers to attack Ukraine's civilians.
Where is the picture of Michael Caine saying, if you have an issue, here’s a tissue? Sounds like the Russians have an issue.
Guess that makes Iran an enemy of Ukraine, doesn;t it? What are they harping about if Ukraine attcked one of their ships? Is Ukraine supposed to just sit here & take it if they don’t have to?
Ukraine never had any nukes...try again
Ukraine had custody of the nukes left on their territory by the collapsed Soviet Union and were thus their legitimate owners just as the Russian Federation had those left on its territory. They never belonged to the Russian Federation until Ukraine handed them over in return for Russian guarantee of Ukraine’s territorial integrity. (And we know how that worked out.)
Try again.
Ukraine is desperate to draw Trump into Obama/Biden’s war with Russia, or to see him gone from office.
Supply lines are legitimate targets. And Iran is in no position to do anything about it. Nor is Russia, apparently.

LOL, so Russia signed the Budapest Memorandum agreeing to honor Ukraine's borders and sovereignty, if Ukraine handed over, according to you, its non-existent nukes? Okay
Ukraine agreed to hand over its nuclear weapons to Russia under the 1994 Budapest Memorandum, which included the Trilateral Statement signed by the United States, Ukraine, and Russia. In exchange for giving up the world's third-largest nuclear arsenal, Ukraine received political assurances regarding its borders and sovereignty.
The Agreement and Relinquishment Signatures Date: December 5, 1994 (Budapest Memorandum)
Transfer Completion: Finished fully by 1996 as warheads moved to Russia for dismantlement.
Arsenal Scope: Roughly 1,700 to 1,900 strategic and tactical nuclear warheads, missile silos, and bombers left behind by the Soviet Union.
Guarantors and Assurances
Signatory Countries: United States, Russian Federation, and the United Kingdom (with parallel commitments or support referenced by France and China).
Pledged Terms: Respecting Ukrainian independence, sovereignty, and existing borders, alongside a strict promise to refrain from the threat or use of military force.
What is good for the goose is certainly good for the gander.
Iranian bombs were killing American troops in Gulf War II. We didn't do anything about that that I am aware of. If we didn't, we should have.
But they are getting theirs now. What goes around comes around.
“Feel free to post the treaty in which NATO “promised not to go east”.”
You may want to look up what Jim Baker stated about NATO not going east.
