Putin Relayed Iran’s Position on Ending War to Trump, Kremlin Says

Russian President Vladimir Putin conveyed Iran’s position on a possible resolution of the U.S.-Iran war to President Donald Trump, the Kremlin said Saturday.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Putin delivered Tehran’s view in coordination with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, according to Russia’s Interfax news agency. Russian media reported that Putin spoke with Trump after meeting Pezeshkian at a summit in Turkmenistan.
The Kremlin did not disclose Iran’s proposed terms or explain how Tehran believes the conflict, which began Feb. 28 with U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iranian targets, could end. The White House didn't immediately respond to CNBC's emailed request to confirm the reported conversation.
The reported call came a day after Trump’s announcement that Russia would release more than 4 million tons of diesel to global markets under an arrangement he said he discussed with Putin. The U.S. Treasury temporarily waived sanctions on Russian diesel through April 2027. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy criticized the move, arguing that easing sanctions without Russian de-escalation would prolong the war in Ukraine.
Trump separately said Monday that he did not believe Russia or China was helping Iran, saying both countries had “too much to lose.” Reuters reported that his statement contradicted U.S. intelligence.
