US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken stated on Friday that negotiation is the best course of action for dealing with the issue of Iran’s nuclear program.
He did, however, add that given Tehran’s involvement in complex negotiation difficulties, Washington does not currently foresee an impending resurrection of the 2015 nuclear agreement.
In a different setting, Blinken stated during a press conference that he does not see any evidence that Russia is interested in putting an end to the conflict in Ukraine, adding that Moscow is instead making payments in the opposite way.
Blinken added that if Washington believes there is a chance to improve relations with Russia, it will explore all options.
According to TASS News Agency, this occurs as US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and his Russian counterpart Sergey Shoigu spoke on Friday for the first time since May. The famous Russian diplomat noted that the communication was essential and required to clear up misunderstandings.
The US Department of Defense withheld information other than to say that Austin was the one who initiated the call and emphasized the importance of communication channels in the Ukrainian conflict.
Russian diplomat Cenantine Gavrillov, who is based in Vienna, was quoted by Tass as stating to Russian TV: “There must be no misunderstanding for accidents to never occur. There are important contacts always and it is important that the Americans are the first to seek. “.
Blinken: The Iran nuclear deal is not about to be revived.
