Diplomatic Ties: Putin and Pezeshkian to Meet at SCO Summit

Russian President Vladimir Putin spoke with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian on Monday, according to the Kremlin. The call covered Iran's nuclear programme and Putin's recent meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump in Alaska.

The Kremlin reported that both leaders have planned to hold a face-to-face meeting during the upcoming Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit in China.

This development suggests a strengthening of Russia-Iran ties amid ongoing global diplomatic engagements.
