Russian President Vladimir Putin conveyed Iran’s position on a possible resolution of the US-Iran war to US President Donald Trump, the Kremlin said Saturday.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Putin delivered the message “in coordination with” Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, according to Russia’s Interfax news agency. Russian media reported that Putin spoke with Trump by phone after meeting Pezeshkian on the sidelines of a summit in Turkmenistan. IranWire reported that Putin offered Russian assistance in efforts to end the war during his meeting with the Iranian president.
The Kremlin did not disclose details of Tehran’s proposal. The White House did not immediately confirm the reported conversation, according to CNBC. Middle East Eye reported that the Kremlin said Trump welcomed Russian involvement in efforts to reach a settlement.
Trump separately said he expected to soon “settle or win” both the Iran conflict and the Russia-Ukraine war, Al Jazeera reported.
The diplomatic contacts came after Trump said Russia would supply more than 4 million tons of diesel to the global market. The US Treasury Department also temporarily waived sanctions on Russian diesel through April 2027, CNBC reported. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy criticized the arrangement, arguing that easing sanctions without Russian de-escalation would prolong the war.
