Kremlin Affirms Ongoing Dialogue With Iranian Leadership to Continue
09:29 GMT 06.03.2026 (Updated: 12:54 GMT 06.03.2026) MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Russia is in dialogue with Iran's leadership and plans to sustain this communication, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Friday
"We are in dialogue with the Iranian side and representatives of its leadership, and we will certainly continue this dialogue," Peskov told reporters.
The Kremlin spokesman also noted that Moscow is witnessing heightened demand for Russian energy resources amid the conflict in and around Iran.
"We are seeing an increase in demand, a significant increase in demand for Russian energy resources and energy resources due to the war in Iran," Peskov told reporters.
Russia remains a reliable supplier of both oil and gas, both piped and liquefied, the official said, adding that Moscow is capable of guaranteeing continuity of all contracted hydrocarbon supplies.
Moscow will not divulge any quantitative data on oil purchases by India and China because there are too many detractors, Peskov said.
On Thursday, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said that the United States had temporarily allowed India to purchase oil from Russia stored on tankers at sea.
"No, of course, we are not going to provide any quantitative data for obvious reasons. There are too many detractors," Peskov told reporters when asked about the volume of purchases from India.
India and China, like Russia, are countries that are guided by national interests, the official said, adding that Russia continues to interact with these countries, including in the energy sector.
On Russia's Special Military Operation
Russian forces are making headway in the special military operation zone, the momentum is evident, and Ukraine finds itself in an uncomfortable position, Peskov said.
"We are moving forward, and the dynamics are well understood and well known to all professionals," Peskov told Russian journalist Pavel Zarubin.
In the current situation, Ukraine "feels uncomfortable," the spokesman added.
"The situation for them [Ukraine] is deteriorating day by day. That is why there is such nervousness bordering on hysteria. I think the situation will continue to deteriorate," Peskov said.
Ukraine is well aware of the steps needed for successful settlement negotiations, the spokesman stressed.
Geneva hosted negotiations between Russia, the United States, and Ukraine from February 17-18. The Russian delegation was led by presidential aide Vladimir Medinsky, who described the discussions as "tough but businesslike." Medinsky announced that a new meeting would be held in the near future.
Finland's deployment of nuclear weapons will pose a threat to Russia, and Moscow will take appropriate measures in response, Peskov vowed.
On Thursday, Finnish Defense Minister Antti Hakkanen said that the Nordic nation's government has proposed allowing the import and storage of nuclear weapons in the country, if it is related to national defense, but in other cases it will continue to be prohibited.
"The fact is that by deploying nuclear weapons on its soil, Finland is beginning to threaten us. And if Finland threatens us, we will take appropriate measures," Peskov told reporters.
By seeking to scrap the ban on nuclear weapons deployments, Helsinki is rendering Finland vulnerable and raising tensions in Europe, the official added.
