Peskov: Putin Working to De-escalate Tensions Around Iran

16 January

Russia is seeking to help de-escalate tensions around Iran and across the wider region, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said at a briefing.

 

He was answering a question about what assistance Moscow would be ready to provide to Tehran in the event of escalation inside Iran and around it.

 

“This assistance — not only to Iran but to the entire region, to the cause of regional stability and peace — Russia is providing already, including thanks to presidential activity aimed at contributing to de-escalation of tensions,” Peskov said.
