🇷🇺🇮🇷📞On April 9, Foreign Minister of Russia Sergey Lavrov and Foreign Minister of Iran Abbas Araghchi had a telephone conversation. The Russian Side welcomed the announcement of agreements on a two-week cessation of hostilities between the US and Iran, as well as Israel’s joining these arrangements. ☝️ As was emphasized, Moscow firmly proceeds from the understanding that these agreements – as announced by the Pakistani mediators – have a regional dimension and, in particular, extend to Lebanon. Sergey Lavrov expressed hope for the success of the negotiating process and reaffirmed Russia’s readiness to assist in finding solutions that would help overcome the consequences of the unprovoked US-Israeli aggression against Iran and ensure lasting peace and sustainable security in the region. Abbas Araghchi thanked the Russian Federation for its principled position at the UN Security Council during discussions of the situation in the Persian Gulf. #RussiaIran
