Trump Dismisses Reports of Russian and Chinese Assistance to Iran

US President Donald Trump stated on Tuesday that he does not believe Russia and China are providing significant assistance to Iran amid the Middle East conflict. In a statement, he strongly criticized left-wing commentators for spreading claims about such backing.

"I see so many comments from the radical left dummies and crazed lunatics, claiming that China and Russia are helping the 'wonderful' Islamic Republic of Iran," Trump wrote. "If they are helping them, it is at a very low level, but I don't believe they are doing it at all."

The US President added that Russia and China have too much to lose from such involvement and emphasized that the United States would detect it immediately. Trump's remarks come against the backdrop of recent media reports suggesting Russian and Western intelligence sharing or missile supplies to Tehran.
