- •L'affaiblissement excessif de l'Iran serait une mauvaise nouvelle pour Moscou qui a besoin de ce levier régional
BIASES
Iran International est un media de diaspora critique du régime iranien — ton différent de l'IRNA ou de la TASSLa couverture de Moscou Times est dissidente par rapport à la ligne officielle russe — les limites du soutien russe à l'Iran sont plus clairement expriméesLes bénéfices économiques russes de la crise sont documentés mais pas condamnés explicitement
