Russia offers Iran help resolving nuclear disputes

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov offered assistance to Iran in resolving disputes over its nuclear program during a meeting with Iranian officials at the BRICS summit. Lavrov condemned recent Israeli and U.S. strikes on Iran, including attacks on nuclear infrastructure, and emphasized the need for diplomatic solutions. Russia reiterated its readiness to mediate and offer solutions, including initiatives previously proposed by the Russian president. This meeting follows a period of heightened tensions and conflict last month, with Iran denying any intention of developing nuclear weapons. Russia maintains Iran's right to a peaceful nuclear program and has a strategic partnership with the country.
