TEHRAN (Sputnik) - Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian, who arrived in Moscow on an official visit, may discuss Iran's nuclear issue with Russian President Vladimir Putin, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei told Sputnik on Friday. He also stressed the importanse of SCO and BRRICS.
"I think it is absolutely natural that the two presidents use this opportunity to discuss the latest developments regarding Iran's nuclear issue. Russia, as a permanent member of the UN Security Council and one of the parties to the nuclear deal, played an important role in shaping this diplomatic achievement [referring to the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action]. Russia's constructive and important role in this area will be key in the future," Baghaei said.

Baghaei further emphasised the importance of BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO). These associations will not only diminish the impact of Western sanctions and neutralise them, but also play a crucial role in shaping international relations, he stressed.

"BRICS and the SCO are two important associations with practical functions in the sphere of economics, politics and security, the importance [of these associations] is growing every day, and [they] will not only effectively reduce the economic and political influence [of sanctions] and even effectively neutralise Western sanctions, but will also contribute to the regulation and adjustment of international relations," Baghaei stated.
He said that during his visit Pezeshkian plans to discuss with Putin developments in Syria and the Gaza Strip, among other issues.
"The core point of this visit is the signing of the strategic partnership agreement between the two countries, but naturally this opportunity will be used to discuss various aspects of relations between the two countries, developments in the region, including changes in Western Asia, in particular in Syria and Gaza, developments in the Caucasus and Central Asia, as well as developments in the international arena," Baghaei highlighted.
