He described the attacks carried out by America and Israel on Iran as a violation of international law and the UN Charter. Speaking to reporters, he said that these attacks were carried out without any provocation and there was no threat to America from Iran.

Russia has promised to fully implement its ‘Comprehensive Strategic Partnership Treaty’ with Iran and increase cooperation in all fields. Medvedev said that Iran is a strong country and it will be able to face powers like America on the basis of its internal unity.

The Russian leader described Iran’s influence on the Strait of Hormuz as very important. He said that Iran’s control over this sea route has the effect of a nuclear weapon and shows how much strategic reach Tehran has.

Russia has welcomed the agreement (MoU) between the US and Iran brokered by Pakistan and Qatar. However, Medvedev cautioned that it would be very difficult to reach a final agreement on issues such as easing sanctions and raising funds for Iran’s reconstruction. He also indicated that Israel might try to sabotage the agreement.

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian thanked Russia for this support. He appealed to Russia to complete the agreements related to trade, energy and transport sectors between the two countries more quickly. Also, the two countries discussed creating a common platform for countries that are under international sanctions so that they can work together.
