How is Iran better at the ceasefire game? I genuinely want to know because I am not as well-versed as I would like on either country.
Russia is using the cease fire as PR even when the PR space is saturated. Nobody is going to change their minds on the SMO because ukraine breached a ceasefire and they have no ways of punishing the breach of the ceasefire. Its a pointless exercise.
Look at how Iran is playing their ceasefire. They have the carrot and stick ready to be used. When the conditions were breached (israel kept bombing Lebanon) they took away the carrot (closed the strait). When usa sent a destroyer towards Hormuz they shook the stick and the boat turned around. They are using the ceasefire as a way reinforce the military gains they have made.
By saturated, do you mean that Western media is so set on being anti-Russia that they do not care about or notice Ukraine breaking the ceasefire? And thanks for the information on Iran.
Not just the media and not just the west. The entire information space is so saturated that nearly every individual in the whole world has an entrenched position on the war. The media plays a part but more importantly is that individuals choose media that backs up their world view. Anyone who is neutral at this point has to be militant about their neutrality because they get bombarded so much by both sides. Anyone who is anti-Russia will say this was justified or that it is fake news.
Ah I see, so everyone ends up being entrenched in the side they stay in, so this PR thing involving Russia is useless because either they already support Russia or they do not, with the ones that do not dismissing the ceasefire violation.
