Tehran (Web Desk): Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin and discussed the recent talks between Iran and the United States held in Islamabad.

During the phone call, Pezeshkian shared his assessment of the negotiations that took place between Iranian and American delegations. The talks were part of efforts to reduce tensions in the Middle East and find a peaceful solution to the conflict.

According to a statement from the Kremlin, the two leaders also discussed the broader situation in the Middle East and the need to lower tensions in the region.

Pezeshkian thanked Russia for its consistent support on international platforms and appreciated Moscow’s stance aimed at reducing conflict and promoting dialogue. He also expressed gratitude for the humanitarian assistance Russia has provided to Iran during the ongoing crisis.

President Putin, on his part, said Russia is ready to continue helping diplomatic efforts and could play a role in mediation if needed. He stressed that Russia wants to support any step that could lead to a fair and lasting peace in the Middle East.

The Kremlin said Russia will continue to stay in contact with regional and international partners to help stabilize the situation.

Both leaders also discussed strengthening bilateral cooperation and reaffirmed their commitment to improving relations between their countries. The phone call came shortly after high-level negotiations between the United States and Iran in Islamabad ended without a final agreement.

These talks were part of wider diplomatic efforts to stop the ongoing conflict that began after a US-Israeli military offensive on Iran on February 28. Since the start of the conflict, more than 3,300 people have reportedly lost their lives.

Iran has also limited the movement of ships through the Strait of Hormuz, which is one of the world’s most important routes for global oil and gas shipments. This restriction has raised concerns in international markets and among global powers about the stability of energy supplies.

Although a fragile two-week ceasefire has recently been announced, many major disagreements between the sides still remain unresolved. Diplomats believe further negotiations will be needed to avoid another escalation in the region.
