I've Been Thinking:Iran and Russia are planning their third set of naval exercises. The first took place in 2015 the second in 2017.
This operation will take place soon and they will use the Caspian Sea.
The Caspian Sea is the largest inland lake in the world. It is 640 miles long and 270 miles wide. No surprise - 2 of the countries that abut the Caspian Sea are Iran and Russia. They
The Sea is rich in natural gas and oil and both countries have created many oil and gas rigs there.
Both Russia and Iran know that the Caspian is an ideal area for natural resource development.
These naval maneuvers follow a tremendous multi-national deal over control of the Caspian. The final agreement resolves a conflict over the natural resources. Since 1991 the Caspian has been in dispute. Russia take the lion share.
Now matters have been resolved and Russian and Iran are working together.
