Iranian Foreign Minister: Rouhani’s “Important” Message Delivered to Putin

Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif says he has delivered an “important” message from Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani to his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin, adding that Tehran and Moscow agreed to finalize a long-term comprehensive deal on strategic cooperation.

During a third visit to Russia in the past six months, Zarif said in a tweet late on Tuesday that he had delivered an important message to Putin, adding that he had held extensive talks with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on bilateral cooperation as well as regional and global coordination.

The top Iranian diplomat said both Tehran and Moscow had “identical views” on the 2015 Iran nuclear deal with major world countries, officially known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), and highlighted the need for upholding international law.

Zarif also underlined that Iran and Russia had “agreed to conclude [a] long-term comprehensive strategic cooperation agreement.”
