During a phone conversation with Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said that mounting Western propaganda against Iran will exacerbate tensions in the Gulf region.

Lavrov added that the western media's media warfare against Iran is risky, and it could lead to a dangerous escalation of tensions in the strategically crucial Gulf region in the current challenging international scenario, as per a statement by the Russian Foreign Ministry.

It is worth noting that propagating Iranophobia, which is a main course on the western agenda, is not new. Only this time, unfortunately, the West has gone as far as exploiting the death of an innocent woman all for the sake of politicizing the incident and pushing further their anti-Iran propaganda, completely turning a blind eye to the truth.

The statement also said that the two foreign ministers discussed regional concerns, with an emphasis on the current situation in the Gulf.

During the phone call, the two ministers shared common perspectives on how to solve problems through political and diplomatic means while also considering the interests of Middle Eastern countries.

Lavrov and Amir-Abdollahian also tackled the situation in the South Caucasus and other topics of mutual interest, as per the statement.

Iran and Russia have been warming up in relations, with reports in July revealing that Iran had become Russia's top customer in purchasing Russian wheat with 360,000 metric tonnes in deliveries according to data-intelligence company Kpler. 

The negotiators with the Russian trade delegation will come from the Tehran Chamber of Commerce, together with representatives from other chambers of commerce around the nation and knowledge-based businesses.

The two countries' close collaboration comes against a backdrop of targeted and comprehensive sanctions waged by the West against them, which has prompted closer cooperation in the long run. The US-led world order has only polarized alliances further.

The closer cooperation will ameliorate the aggressive impacts of the West-led sanctions on the two countries by locating new markets for their products and boosting military cooperation. Recently, US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan called the ties a "profound threat".
