AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): Representative of President Vladimir Putin for the Middle East Mikhail Bogdanov expressed Russian Federation’s tendency to continue consultations with Iran with regard to the latest developments in Iraq and the Middle East.

During a phone conversation with Iranian Ambassador to Russia Kazem Jalali, Bogdanov described the situation in Iraq as complicated and stressed the importance of reviewing regional developments.

Both sides also discussed the situation in Yemen and the US’ cruel and illegal sanctions against some countries in the world.

Meanwhile, Jalali referred to US’ recent moves in Iraq and such measures as violating independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity of Baghdad.

These acts can result in maintaining instability in Iraq and the region, he added.

Iranian diplomat praised the Russian Federation’s position against US’ cruel and inhumane sanctions against Iran.

It is time for the entire world to take serious action against the US unilateral measures, he noted.
