Russian President Vladimir Putin criticized the recent U.S. airstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities as unjustified and warned they are driving the world toward heightened instability. He met with Iran’s foreign minister in Moscow, offering support while calling for efforts to ease tensions.
Speaking during a meeting with Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi in Moscow, Putin described the attacks as "absolutely unprovoked" and emphasized the importance of pursuing ways to de-escalate the crisis.
Putin added that Russia is making efforts to support the Iranian people but did not outline any specific measures. Araqchi reportedly delivered a letter from Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei to Putin, requesting greater assistance from Moscow. While the Kremlin did not confirm the contents of the letter, Araqchi passed along well-wishes from Iran’s leadership.
Later, addressing a group of advanced military recruits, Putin noted that actors from outside the region are becoming involved in the conflict, a development he warned could bring the world closer to a dangerous tipping point.
Although Russia and Iran signed a 20-year strategic cooperation deal earlier this year, the agreement does not include mutual defense commitments. Iranian officials have expressed frustration with the current level of Russian support and are urging Moscow to take more decisive actions.
