but moscow denied it. there's other deals in progress on the table. third, moscow has always tried to create a block in the middle east of states that support it against the united states effort to be the unilateral security manager in the middle east. now that we are apparently forgoing that quest, the creation of this block becomes all the more attractive and vital for russia. it so happens they created this block in 1978, 79 and i might be the only person in the room who remembers that it was called the rejection is front. it was iran, iraq and syria against camp david. oddly enough those are the same three states they want to create a block with now. interestingly they are all shiites. iran is important from that point of view but at the same time the russians know what's most important is a working partnership with the united states with the last in the west igniting their greater global status potential and they are prepared always have been to sacrifice their relationship with iran to that imperativ
