A phone conversation between Lavrov and Aragchi took place

“During the negotiations, the head of Russian diplomacy once again expressed the principled position of official Moscow, according to which the increase in tension should be stopped, and the parties should take steps towards a political-diplomatic solution of the issue,” Interfax agency reports.

The Russian side is ready to support the efforts made in this direction, “if, of course, the interests of Iran and neighboring countries are properly taken into account,” Lavrov added.
