Iran’s Foreign Minister has arrived in Russia following visits to Pakistan and Oman, as part of a broader regional tour aimed at easing tensions.
The trip comes amid an intensified diplomatic effort to contain growing regional strains. Speaking about his Moscow visit, Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said it offers an important opportunity to review developments related to the ongoing conflict and to coordinate positions, according to Iran’s Mehr news agency.

Araghchi noted that his earlier visit to Islamabad was essential due to Pakistan’s role in mediation efforts. He said the discussions there saw some progress but ultimately failed to meet their objectives because of what he described as “excessive demands” from Washington.
During his visit to Oman, the Iranian minister highlighted that both Iran and Oman are coastal states along the Strait of Hormuz and therefore share common interests in the waterway’s stability. He stressed the need to continue expert-level talks to safeguard those interests.
The tour underscores Tehran’s ongoing diplomatic engagement with key regional actors as tensions persist.
