The US threatened sanctions.

According to US intelligence, the Russian private military company Wagner is preparing to transfer air defense assets to Hezbollah or Iran.

This was stated by the representative of the National Security Council of the States, John Kirby, writes CNN . According to him, the PMC received the corresponding instructions from the Russian government. “We will closely monitor whether Wagner provides military equipment to Hezbollah or Iran. We are ready to apply our anti-terrorism sanctions against Russian individuals or entities carrying out these destabilizing transfers,” he stressed.

The National Security Council speaker noted that Russia’s role in leading the transfer of the air defense system to Hezbollah reflects Moscow’s ongoing relationship with Iran and its arms proxies, which has only intensified since the outbreak of a full-scale war in Ukraine.

In addition, Washington is concerned that Iran is preparing to provide Russia with ballistic missiles, which Iran demonstrated to Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu during his visit to Tehran.

  1. We are ready to apply our anti-terrorism sanctions against Russian individuals or entities carrying out these destabilizing transfers,”

    Pathetic! How about labeling mafia land as a state sponsor of terrorism?

  2. “We are ready to apply our anti-terrorism sanctions…”

    The axis of evil is expanding its terrorism. Instead of fighting it tooth and nail, we respond with pathetic sanctions … sanctions that have failed for decades to stop iran’s transgressions and are failing in mafia land’s efforts to try to erase an entire nation.
    We have it in our hands to eliminate one member of this evil gang, and this without sacrificing a single American soldier. All we have to do is to hand over to Ukraine exactly what it needs. But, what we’re doing instead is to dither and to stumble and to fumble around like a bunch of naive idiots.
    COUNTLESS reports of how the two trash nations circumvent sanctions should have been more than enough to open some gooey, sticky eyes in Washington and elsewhere, but it’s very clear that they haven’t. And to think that they get paid a lot of money and enjoy many privileges for their utter stupidity.
