US EditionIran foreign minister heads to Moscow for meeting with Putin
Araghchi is seeking Russian backing after US-Iran talks collapsed over nuclear demands and control of the Strait of Hormuz, officials said.
- On Monday, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi arrived in Moscow to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin, discussing developments following a temporary ceasefire that halted US and Israeli attacks against the Islamic Republic.
- Araghchi conducted a regional tour through Pakistan and Oman before Moscow, sharing 'Iran's positions and views on the framework of any understanding to completely end the war' with key mediators.
- President Donald Trump canceled a planned negotiating trip to Islamabad, insisting there was no point 'sitting around talking about nothing,' while Iran transmitted 'written messages' to the United States via Pakistani mediators.
- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Hezbollah of violating the ceasefire, leading Israel to order strikes on seven locations in Lebanon, while Hezbollah vowed to respond to the 'continued occupation of Lebanese territory'.
- The vital Strait of Hormuz remains blocked with no sign of reopening, and despite ongoing indirect efforts, there is no indication that direct talks between the United States and Iran will resume soon.
