Russia has denied sharing intelligence with Iran on U.S. military assets in the Middle East, U.S. special envoy Steve Witkoff said on Tuesday in a CNBC interview.
“Yesterday on the call with the president, the Russians said that they have not been sharing,” Witkoff said when asked if Washington thought Russia had shared with Tehran intelligence about the location of U.S. military assets.
“We can take them at their word. But they did say that. And yesterday morning, independently, Jared (Kushner) and I had a call with (Kremlin foreign policy aide Yuri) Ushakov who reiterated the same,” said Witkoff.
He added: “That’s a better question for the intel people, but let’s hope that they’re not sharing.”

Trump and Witkoff are either extremely naive or are choosing to look the other way here, either because of Trump’s personal fondness for Putin or because whatever assistance Russia is giving Iran isn’t deemed as effective.

Everything Russia says is lie. Really. 100%. No need to check with any Intel agencies. If there’s any statement that comes out of Russia, it’s a lie.

Trump said we can believe the Russians so there you have it.

That is calming, there is no way Russia lies about anything.

Would Witkoff ever say anything negative about Russia even if he was explicitly told about it?

Apparently the Chechens are making noise about the joining the war and helping Iran.

Given the fact that we’ve supplied Ukraine with intelligence on Russian positions, I would be very surprised if Russia wasn’t returning the favor in kind
