On September 30th Russia began a special operation in Syria, in which long-range, operational-tactical and army aviation, ships and submarines of several navies are involved. In total the combat aircraft have carried out about 4000 sorties and destroyed more than 8000 military infrastructure objects of the terrorists. Since September this year an information center including representatives from Russia, Syria and Iran has been operating in Baghdad. But yesterday Syrian President Bashar Assad said that neither Iran nor Russia are going to build a military base in Syria.
Meanwhile, the experts believe that the cooperation between Moscow and Tehran in the Middle East will be developed. As theeditor-in-chief of the ‘Al-Wifaq’ newspaper, Mosaib Naimi, says, "there are relations between two countries such as Iran and Russia in view of their geographical position and historical elements, as well as the potential opportunities that exist in these two countries . We are located at the strategic level of partnership and cooperation. "
According to Naimi, "when the Americans invaded Iraq and Afghanistan, it was a plan for the development of influence in our region. And this meant that Russia's influence would decline. And they always do it. Now Russia is fighting against the terrorism in Syria and the illegitimate US influence in the Middle East as a whole . In the Arab countries and other Muslim states it is being advocated that Russia can not be trusted. We have faced Iranophobia already, and now Russiaphobia is also already inflated. "
Mosaib Naimi believes that "the the US is trying to establish a phobia of Russia in their heads, because in fact, for political and strategic reasons, and also for tactical reasons, the US has not been able to create a fence between Russia and the Islamic states. Today the majority of Muslim countries, at least, in fact, the Muslim nations, we see that they absolutely confirm the policy of Russia, because they know that the road to recovery from the ruthless domination of the United States is only through cooperation with Russia. So I think that Russia should pay attention to this danger. "
