Russian President Vladimir Putin anticipates renewed negotiations with the United States, contingent on the conclusion of a final agreement concerning the conflict in Iran. Putin indicated that U.S. representatives, who have previously met with Moscow, are expected to visit again once the "active phase" in Iran has ended.
"We expect to see representatives from the American administration, whom we have already met several times in Moscow, when the events are over and the active phase in Iran is concluded," Putin stated in an interview with journalist Pavel Zarubin, as reported by Russian news agencies. He added, "We are ready to continue negotiations and discuss all the details."
Putin's remarks follow the G7 summit in France, where U.S. President Donald Trump urged Russia to finalize a deal with Ukraine. Trump had also recently acknowledged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's management of the ongoing war, describing him as "brave" and noting his ability to "hold his ground."
The U.S. administration has previously focused on Iran, with envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner visiting Moscow multiple times. The U.S. and Israel initiated military action in Iran on February 28, which has since expanded across the Middle East. A preliminary agreement between the U.S. and Iran was reached in mid-June, obligating both nations to negotiate a final peace accord within 60 days.
