#russia sees a chance to gain an advantage as tensions rise in the Middle East.

Experts say that as the fighting in the Middle East gets worse, Russia may be able to use its military better.

Instability in the area could make oil prices go up, which would be good for Moscow's energy income. Daniel Yergin, an energy expert at S&P Global, said that higher oil prices could help Russia's budget a lot because energy exports are a big part of it.

The problem might also make people forget about the war in #ukraine . If the United States and its allies increase their financial support in the Middle East, it could potentially help Russia's military efforts.

However, this strategy also has some potential dangers.
Iran and Russia have a lot of ties, but if the fighting gets worse, it could hurt their relationship. At the same time, problems near the Strait of Hormuz could keep oil prices high around the world, which would be even better for Russia's energy supplies.

Overall, the situation presents both opportunities and challenges for Vladimir Putin's plans.
Moscow is trying to reach its goals in Ukraine without getting into a direct fight with Washington.
