Russia Offers to Aid Iran-U.S. Comprehensive Agreement, Cites Global Security

According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov stated on Wednesday that his country is ready to provide any necessary assistance to facilitate a stable agreement between Iran and the United States. Russia is willing to contribute to the attainment of a comprehensive and long-term accord between the U.S. and Iran, highlighting that the opening of the Strait of Hormuz would be beneficial for global energy and food security.

The Russian Foreign Minister further commented on the ongoing conflict in Gaza, asserting that the war must cease. He reiterated Russia’s support for the Palestinian people’s right to establish their own state.

Lavrov also addressed Western policies, urging the West to recognize that it is time to abandon colonial-style military designs along Russia’s borders. He expressed readiness for dialogue with the West based on mutual respect and equality. The minister pointed to recent actions by the West, including the alleged misappropriation of six billion dollars of Russian assets transferred to Ukraine, and stated that Russia does not accept temporary solutions for the Ukraine crisis. Russia is open to negotiations regarding Ukraine, provided serious proposals are presented. He concluded by suggesting that a diplomatic resolution to the Ukraine issue is achievable but that the West is obstructing such efforts.
