Kremlin Urges US and Iran to Resume Peace Talks Amid Rising Tensions
The Kremlin has called on the United States and Iran to exercise restraint and return to the negotiating table. A spokesman warned that fresh strikes could harm the global economy and further destabilise the region. The current standoff followed years of rivalry that escalated into direct military confrontations earlier this year. After heavy US and Israeli airstrikes on Iranian sites, a fragile ceasefire collapsed and Tehran moved to restrict traffic through the Strait of Hormuz. In response, the US imposed a naval blockade, driving up world energy prices. Diplomatic efforts remain stalled as Washington demands Iran dismantle its advanced nuclear programme, while Tehran refuses to negotiate under threats of bombings and sanctions. Each side’s hardline stance risks deeper economic and regional fallout.
