TEHRAN- Iran’s deputy foreign minister for political affairs has noted that Iran and Russia must use all of their capacities to put a halt to Israel’s attacks on innocent Palestinians in Gaza and deliver humanitarian relief aid to the blockaded region.
Ali Bagheri Kani made the comments during a meeting with Russian Security Council Deputy Secretary Alexander Venediktov in Moscow on Friday, as the Israeli regime is relentlessly bombarding the defenseless people of Gaza.
According to the Russian security official, the United States is the main cause of the current crisis in Palestine.
Venediktov went on to say that the U.S. aims to incite unrest by establishing hotspots throughout West Asia.
He added that the White House officials show no interest in advancing regional security and peace.
Additionally, Venediktov formally invited Ali Akbar Ahmadian, Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council, to visit Moscow to address the most recent mutual, regional, and international concerns.
Bagheri Kani visited Moscow on Thursday at the request of his Russian counterpart to discuss the Gaza conflict.
During his stay, he met Abu Marzouk, a Hamas Politburo member. During the meeting, the deputy foreign minister said Tehran’s “priority is an immediate cease-fire, providing assistance to the people and lifting the repressive blockade of Gaza.”
Also on Thursday, Iran and Russia’s deputy foreign ministers met to discuss the situation in the Caucasus, highlighting the 3+3 format meeting in Tehran to promote peace and stability in the South Caucasus region without outside intervention.
Bagheri Kani and Mikhail Galuzin also addressed a wide variety of issues concerning Iran-Russia cooperation.
Additionally, Bagheri Kani held talks with Sergei Ryabkov, Russia’s deputy foreign minister for North and South American countries. They exchanged views on cooperation among BRICS countries as well as international security.
