We had a very good meeting with Mr. Putin. It lasted perhaps over an hour and a half. All topics—both bilateral relations, regional issues, as well as the war and aggression by the U.S. and Zionist regimes—were discussed and examined in detail. Cooperation between the two countries was also addressed, and very good ideas were put forward.
There are now very good grounds for cooperation. Mr. Putin also stated that not only Russia, but the entire world is currently admiring the Iranian people—for their steadfastness against the United States and for their victory in this unequal and unjust war. We thank our Russian friends for their support throughout this war, and we declare the determination of the Islamic Republic of Iran to continue strategic relations and strategic partnership with Russia under the new circumstances.
