Putin Has No Time to Meet with Araqchi, Says Peskov

The Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi is set to visit Russia and Belarus this week; however, a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin is not on the agenda in Moscow. This was confirmed by Dmitry Peskov, the Press Secretary of the President of Russia.

Peskov stated that the presidential schedule is extremely busy, which means there is no opportunity to organize a meeting with Araqchi this time. 'The timetable does not permit it,' the Kremlin representative noted, emphasizing that this does not affect the nature of the relations between the two countries.
