Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov expressed condolences to Iran for the tragic death of President Ebrahim Raeisi and Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian in a helicopter crash. He reaffirmed Russia’s commitment to cooperation with Iran on both bilateral and international issues, emphasizing that previous agreements will still be honored.
Ryabkov noted that Moscow and Tehran will continue to strengthen their relationship, particularly in terms of security. The helicopter carrying President Raeisi and his delegation crashed in a forest in East Azarbaijan Province, resulting in the loss of several lives including government officials and crew members. The delegation was returning from a dam inauguration ceremony with Azerbaijan’s President Ilham Aliyev.
Despite the tragic incident, Russia remains dedicated to enhancing its partnership with Iran and extending its support during this difficult time.
