The Kremlin has backed US-Iran nuclear talks, calling them a step toward easing tensions, as Moscow deepens military ties with Tehran through a newly ratified 20-year strategic pact involving joint drills and intelligence cooperation.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov confirmed on Tuesday that Moscow welcomes planned discussions—reportedly to be held in Oman, potentially via mediators—between the long-standing adversaries. “Of course, this can only be welcomed, because it may lead to a de-escalation of tensions around Iran,” Peskov told reporters.
The statement coincides with the Russian parliament’s ratification of a 20-year strategic cooperation agreement with Iran. Signed in January by Presidents Vladimir Putin and Masoud Pezeshkian, the deal underscores growing military and political ties between the two nations.
The agreement outlines cooperation on joint military exercises, intelligence sharing, and security operations within and beyond their borders.
