At a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in the Kremlin on Thursday, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi affirmed the urgency of halting the war on the Gaza Strip and underscored the need for a swift resolution to the escalating situation.

"It is necessary to stop the bombing [of the Gaza Strip] as soon as possible. This issue is not only a matter of our region, it is a matter of all mankind. Therefore, it is necessary to find a very quick solution to this issue," Raisi said.

Putin recently concluded a tour across the Middle East which included visits to Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. 

He told the Iranian President that he wanted to visit Tehran but was told that Raisi was already planning to come to Moscow.

"Yesterday, you know, I was there in the neighboring region. And I flew directly over the territory of your country and wanted to land and meet right in Tehran, but I was told that the president was already planning to fly to Moscow," Putin said at the meeting.

Putin:

When I was flying over Iran, I wanted to land in Tehran and to meet you.

But I was informed that you wanted to visit Moscow. Relations between our countries are growing rapidly.

Please convey my best wishes to the Supreme Leader, who supports our relations. pic.twitter.com/DbsPzfB3zG

He also said that Russia is engaged in extensive collaboration with Iran across various sectors, notably in the energy domain.

"We have large infrastructure projects, we have been discussing for a long time, and now we have come to the practical implementation of the construction of the North–South railway. We work naturally, traditionally, in the field of energy. In the field of education, we have a significant number of Iranian students studying here. In general, work is quite active in almost all areas," Putin said.
