President Putin speaks to Iranian Journalists about Iran, Russia and ZoroastrianismThis interview was conducted during his first state visit to Iran in 2007. (Source: persianrealm.com)

In addition to the new Russian Tzar’s apparent infatuation for Iran’s culture and past, President Putin seems to also share something else with the clowns who are ruling the land of Cyrus and Darius and that is their common regional Policy towards Syria. Russia has been the first to offer it’s help to Iran’s government faced by the recent earthquake tragedy and Putin has sent his condolences to President Ahmadinejad (see Related Russian News)

 

 

President Putin about Iran, Russia and Zoroastrianism :

 

Vladimir Putin to Iranian Journalists: « I don't consider myself a specialist of Persian literature, which I
regret, because everything I hear or learn is very interesting despite
being fragmented. This also concerns the history of Iran, a part of
world history. Iran is initially a world power that spread from the
near East to India, and even included some parts of the former Soviet
republics.
 Iran is a country of protoreligion, Zoroastrianism. Some specialist
consider it an eventual source of Islam, Christianity, and Judaism.
But according to some studies, Zoroastrianism was born on Russia's
territory, in the south Urals. And followers of this great religion
ended up on the territory of Iran after a great migration. This is to
say that the histories of our two countries and the roots of their
cultural exchange are much deeper than can be imagined at first. That
gives security that our two countries will always be able to
communicate on any problem, since we understand one another. »

Russia reaches deal on Tajik base (bbc, video)

 

Tajikistan has allowed Russia a 30-year extension on a Soviet-era military base seen as a bulwark against Islamist militancy and drug-trafficking.

The two countries' defence ministers signed an agreement in the Tajik capital Dushanbe to extend the lease, due to expire in 2014, until 2042.

In return Tajikistan will get economic support and political backing for its long serving president.

The deal comes at a time of growing instability in the former Soviet state, which shares a lengthy border with Afghanistan.
