Milan, 23 March (LaPresse) – Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi held a telephone conversation, “at Iran’s initiative”. This was reported in a statement by the Russian Foreign Ministry. During the conversation, “the situation in the Persian Gulf region was discussed”. Lavrov “stressed the absolute unacceptability of US and Israeli attacks on Iranian nuclear infrastructure, including the Bushehr nuclear power plant, which create unacceptable risks to the safety of Russian personnel and entail catastrophic environmental consequences for all countries in the region without exception”, the statement reads. Mutual concern was therefore expressed regarding the dangerous spread of the conflict, provoked by Washington and Tel Aviv, to the Caspian Sea region.
