Russia Is Ready to Use Military Power to Defend Iran

Russia will never help Iran if the U.S fights Iran.

We sold syria's friend Lebanon this, if they ask we can work deals.

The problem is time. Does China have those in stock and ready for immediate delivery? Otherwise, if the fighting starts soon then ordering equipment is next to useless.

For the PLA yes, no not immediate however for the right price yes, it would best if they bought and received the equipment before.

Source of Syrian blood bath is money from small state call Qatar and house of Saud. If one can address these two problems specially Qatar, the easy one then these blood bath will go away. This is as simple as that.

They have Received Upgraded S-300's from Russia if they want they should look to the HQ-16 rather then HQ-9.

why is it so hard to believe that syrian people can actually want democracy? are they too much of an idiot to even want to get rid of a dictator?

Arms embargo on Iran currently however in a situation of war we will support Iran Covertly. I was taking of Syria.

Not so wise to sell arms to Syria atm Assed's end is near. The new government will be against China then.

No one in Iran counts on foreign help if we go into a war with the USA,we're getting prepared to defend our country at any cost, but of course any military help from global powers will be appreciated and welcomed but we won't count on them unless we see them helping us militarily in reality.

Wise approach, while I do expect Russia/China helping Iran, but more under the table than helping with an army. And even if they would promise it, Iran still cant rely on what others might or might not do, self-reliance is the key.

This is nothing but hot air. Russia is not yet ready for overseas military intervention. The reorganisation and reformation of its military is far from complete. The gaps left by the decade of neglect and financial starvation following the collapse of the USSR have yet to be filled. The Russian military today has the profile of 80% - 1970 vintage, 15% - 1985 vintage and 5% - 2000 vintage. That is simply not good enough. Give Russia another 10 years for the reformation and rearming to be complete.

However, military action is not the only way to forestall war. Diplomatically, Russia and China combined can achieve a lot if they are really willing to.
