Muscat: Russia’s Foreign Ministry has reiterated its support for diplomacy over military action in resolving the Iranian nuclear issue.
Speaking on the sidelines of the 9th Asia-Pacific Union meeting in Saint Petersburg, the Ministry’s spokesperson emphasised that resuming negotiations between Iran and the United States, with mediation from the Sultanate of Oman, remains the only viable path to a peaceful resolution rather than through Israeli military strikes.
The Russian official strongly criticised recent Israeli military actions, labelling them as counterproductive and destabilizing. She lauded Oman’s balanced and persistent diplomatic efforts, describing them as crucial in bridging communication between Tehran and Washington.
