Zelensky supports the wars of his allies because he doesn't not want to alienate Ukraine. Staying on good terms with other countries ensures that his country gets continued equipment

The war on Iran is limiting Ukraine access to needed equipment to stop russian aggression because usa always prioritize the settler colonial genocidal state of israel. Is it really an ally a country like Israel having great relation with Russia which is not needed for israel survival , who have zero sanctions on russia

Iran has been supplying Russia with war materials, so Ukraine benefits from war on Iran using up those supplies as well.

They used to, not anymore because russia now has it's own version of the shahed. The usa has zero way to win this war, the longer is get the worse it will get from ukraine. Ukraine do not benefit at all from it. What should happen is the complete opposite , europe need to try to normalize relation with iran in exchange of abondoning russia.
