This publication discusses bilateral cooperation between Russia and Iran particularly in relation to arms sales and technology sharing. The author argues that both states have a shared perception of their identity as each has been labeled as pariah state at some point since the beginning of the 20th century. He concludes that Russia needs a quiescent partner in the south, not another nuclear-armed power which could strike deep into the heart of Russian territory.
