🇷🇺🇮🇷 Moscow and Tehran will sign a major interstate treaty, the Russian Defense Ministry said after a telephone conversation between the Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and his Iranian counterpart Mohammad Ashtiani.

"The parties emphasized the commitment to the fundamental principles of Russian-Iranian relations, including unconditional respect for each other's sovereignty and territorial integrity, which will be confirmed in the major interstate treaty between the Russian Federation and the Islamic Republic of Iran that is being prepared for signing," the ministry said.

In September 2022, it was announced that work was underway on a new major treaty between Russia and Iran when Vladimir Putin and President of the Islamic Republic Ebrahim Raisi discussed the issue on the sidelines of the SCO summit in Samarkand.
