Russian President Vladimir Putin discussed with his Iranian counterpart Ebrahim Raisi the situation in Ukraine, the Iranian nuclear deal about which negotiations are taking place in Vienna, and Russia's security proposals that Moscow had presented to the West regarding NATO's eastward expansion.

The phone call was initiated by Tehran, and Putin informed Raisi about the military operation taking place in Ukraine.

Putin underscored that Moscow launched the operation to protect the innocent civilians in the Donbass republics, namely Lugansk and Donetsk, in accordance with international law and obligations under friendship and bilateral aid agreements with the DPR and LPR.

Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi voiced his understanding of Russia's security concern due to the US and NATO's destabilizing actions.

The sides also discussed diplomatic efforts to maintain and fully implement the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) on the Iranian nuclear program, noting that an agreement would contribute to maintaining regional stability and security. 

The two also agreed to continue cooperating in various spheres, as the two nations had previously signed bilats to cooperate on the economy, trade, politics, and other areas.

The call comes amid a Russian special military operation in Donbass this Thursday morning, citing neo-Nazi NATO allies moving closer to his nation's border.

Russia has for months been warning of the threat posed against it by NATO's attempts to expand eastward, which happened simultaneously with an increase in NATO military activity along Russia's borders, and batches of lethal weapons being sent to Ukraine, prompting Russia to request security guarantees from the West. Washington failed to provide the guarantees.

Tensions had been soaring between Russia and Ukraine over the Donbass region and announcing it was intending to sign a decree recognizing the independence of the Lugansk People's Republic (LPR) and the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR). 

The announcement had been preceded by intense Ukrainian shelling of the two republics, and Russia's recognition of their statehood was a move to protect the innocent civilians from the Ukrainian aggressions.
