Lavrov and Araqchi Discuss US-Iran Framework for Gulf Stability

Moscow has signaled its willingness to facilitate the resolution of the crisis, citing its unique regional experience and diplomatic expertise. The proposed framework, confirmed by officials from both the United States and Iran on Sunday, outlines terms to conclude the ongoing conflict, end the U.S. naval blockade, and restore unimpeded passage through the Strait of Hormuz. While the specifics of the Russian involvement remain under negotiation, the Foreign Ministry indicated that Moscow is prepared to support these de-escalation efforts to ensure stability in the region.
