MOSCOW, Oct 10 — Russian President Vladimir Putin has told Donald Trump about Iran’s position on a possible Mideast peace deal, the Kremlin said today.
The Kremlin said Tehran’s stance was relayed in a phone call held between the two leaders yesterday. It did not say how Trump responded, nor elaborate on Iran’s position.
Diplomatic efforts to end the more-than-seven-month-long Iran conflict, which began with US-Israeli strikes on Iran in February, have been at an impasse since the summer.
Putin met Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on the sidelines of a summit in Turkmenistan earlier this week, where the Russian leader expressed an interest in helping broker peace.
“In coordination with the Iranian president, Putin conveyed the Iranian side’s views on a possible resolution to the conflict to Trump,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said today, according to Russia’s state RIA news agency.
The United States and Iran agreed a memorandum of understanding in June that spelled out a framework for ending their conflict, but Iranian attacks on ships in the Strait of Hormuz prompted a resumption of US military operations.
Recent indirect talks between Washington and Tehran on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly failed to produce a breakthrough. — AFP
