BAKU, Azerbaijan, April 14. Russian Foreign
Minister Sergey Lavrov discussed the situation in the Middle East
by telephone with his Iranian counterpart Hossein Amir-Abdollahian,
Trend reports
citing Russian Foreign Ministry.
“The focus was on the situation in the Middle East. The head of
the Iranian Foreign Ministry informed his Russian counterpart about
the measures taken by Tehran in response to the April 1 Israeli
airstrike on the consular section of the Iranian Embassy in
Damascus, which resulted in the death of Iranian officials.
As noted, additional escalation of the situation in the region
and new dangerous provocative actions could lead to increased
tension in the Middle East. Preventing such scenarios and
eliminating their root causes should be the subject of special
priority attention of the UN Security Council,” the diplomatic
department said.
