The Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced today, Saturday, that Tehran supports the rule of law in Russia, after the armed rebellion launched by the Wagner Group against the Russian military leadership.
Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani said, "Iran supports the rule of law in the Russian Federation and considers the latest developments an internal matter for Russia."
The Iranian Foreign Ministry's announcement coincided with a similar one by Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, in which he declared his "full support" in the face of the armed rebellion launched by the Wagner Group against the Russian military leadership.
These statements come after the commander of Wagner's forces, Yevgeny Prigozhin, announced the armed rebellion against the Russian state, indicating that "Moscow will have a new president."
