It was previously reported that the head of Iranian diplomacy visited Russia during his visit plans to discuss the issue of ending the US and Israel's war with Iran, among others safety of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz and the Persian Gulf. A ceasefire has been in force since April 8.
The head of the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs visits Russia. He will meet with Putin
The Russian Foreign Ministry confirmed Aragchi's “visit to Russia to conduct negotiations.” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that the Russian leader has a meeting scheduled with the Iranian minister.
Agencies remind that Russia-Iran's 2025 strategic agreement does not include a mutual defense commitment. When the US and Israel bombed targets in Iran for nearly two weeks in June 2025, Russia and Tehran's other key ally, China, limited themselves to diplomatic responses.
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Aragchi flew from Oman to Pakistan on Sunday, but – as the Pakistani authorities informed – the expected peace negotiations with the American delegation did not take place.
