Last month, Russia made public comments that distanced itself from Iran (see Russia Distancing Itself from Iran). Today’s comments suggest that Russia really means it and is probably giving Iran a strong hint that Iran is likely to be attacked if it does not cooperate.

If Iran is attacked, this ultimately may encourage the development of what will be a temporary peace deal, not only with Iran, but likely much of the Middle East (cf. Daniel 9:27).
