Russia and Iran discussed the current situation in the Middle East and the Strait of Hormuz, the former country's Foreign Ministry said on Thursday.
Iranian Ambassador to Russia Kazem Jalali initiated contact with the Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Georgy Borisenko, amid ongoing tensions between Tehran and Washington, the closure of the Strait, and the US naval blockade of Iran. "The situation in the Middle East, which has developed as a result of the unprovoked US aggression against Iran, was discussed. In particular, an exchange of views took place on the situation in the Strait of Hormuz, taking into account the Iranian-Omani agreement on navigation through this strategically important waterway," Russia's Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
Moscow has consistently expressed support for Tehran in the wake of the US-Israeli attack on the Middle Eastern country in February this year.
