CNN reported on local time 10th that U.S. Defense Secretary Esper issued a so-called warning to Russia during a press conference: Do not get involved in the Iran conflict.
Previously on the 9th, Russian President Putin had a phone call with U.S. President Trump as scheduled, focusing on international issues such as the situation in Iran and Ukraine. On the 10th, Esper said this was a "strong conversation," and he hoped this call would reiterate the possibility of achieving some kind of peace in the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
Esper stated that the phone call between the U.S. and Russian leaders also reaffirmed a consensus: "Regarding this (Iran) conflict, Russia should not be involved."
CNN previously quoted sources as saying that Russia is assisting Iran's military operations by providing U.S. military target intelligence to Iran.
