The Kremlin on Wednesday said Tehran’s decision to suspend cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) is a "direct" result of the recent Israeli and US strikes on nuclear facilities in Iran.
Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov called the strikes “unprecedented” and criticized the IAEA, saying its credibility had been damaged in the wake of the attacks. He added that the Kremlin was monitoring the situation closely and maintaining communication with Tehran. Peskov also noted that there are ongoing channels of contact between Iran and the U.S., either directly or indirectly.
Iran's parliament voted to suspend cooperation with the IAEA shortly after a U.S.-brokered ceasefire between Iran and Israel went into effect. While damage assessments are still unclear, Russia emphasized the global concern about rising nuclear tensions.
On another front, Peskov commented on the Russia–Ukraine peace process, saying that humanitarian agreements from the second round of Istanbul talks were being finalized and dates for a third round of negotiations would be set afterward. The two countries recently agreed to a new prisoner exchange and the return of the remains of 6,000 fallen soldiers from each side.
