Iran’s foreign minister visits Russia on last leg of regional tour

Discussions on bilateral ties and regional issues, including the Iran-US conflict, will be held with Russian officials during a visit to St Petersburg, Iran’s foreign minister says, marking the final leg of a regional tour that also took him to Pakistan and Oman, Iranian state media reports.

Abbas Araghchi says recent consultations in Pakistan reviewed conditions under which Iran-US talks could resume, stressing that Tehran will seek to secure its rights and national interests following weeks of conflict.

He also says Iran and Oman, as coastal states of the Strait of Hormuz, have agreed to continue expert-level consultations to ensure safe transit and protect shared interests in the waterway.
