Russia is supplying Iran with Shahed drones to use against the U.S. and Israel, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy told CNN in an interview excerpt aired on Saturday.
Zelenskiy told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria that it is “100% facts” that Iran has used Russian-made Shaheds to attack U.S. bases.
Iran pioneered the Shahed drone, a much cheaper alternative to expensive missiles. They first saw mass use in Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, where thousands of them have been launched by Russian forces since fall 2022, according to the Ukrainians.
If Trump was not an incompetent moron then I’d say perhaps there is something to the idea that he’s a Russian plant, but he is so this all probably just due to his inability to forecast the consequences of his actions.
Trump’s incompetence does not preclude him from being a Russian asset. His buttons are easy to press if you can get access to him.
