The “proxys” attack, Iran cleared
Friends of the Iranian regime, “Proxys” are considered terrorist groups which are not governed by any agreement on an international scale. Allies of Iran, they help the Tehran regime in exchange for weapons and funding: “Iran finances them and provides them with weapons. Many of the oil export money is used to finance these support groups ”underlines Azadeh Kian, Franco-Iranian sociologist, professor at the University of Paris to our 20-minute colleagues. They are unofficial allies. These “proxys” are in an ideological agreement being in opposition to the United States and Israel.
The “proxys” have a strong “nuisance capacity” since they are difficult to control. They allow Iran to attack enemies while clearing consequences. In summary, Iran attacks through “proxys” and can say “it’s not me”, as our colleagues of 20 minutes explain. “Proxys” are generally militias from Syria, Lebanon, Iraq or Yemen. Among the most famous and faithful “proxys”, Iran can count on the Lebanese Hezbollah, the Houthis of Yemen, Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic jihad. It is essential to recall that Iran has no support from heads of state on the planet.
