During the meeting, Putin conveyed his wishes to Araghchi for the health and well-being of Iran's Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei.

"At the beginning of the conversation, I would like to note that last week I received a message from the Supreme Leader of Iran," Putin said.
Putin said Moscow intends to continue developing strategic relations with Iran, is willing to make efforts to help secure peace in the Middle East at an early date, and hopes that the Iranian people will pass through the current period of trials and that peace will come.
"We will do everything that meets your interests and the interests of all the peoples of the region to achieve this peace as quickly as possible," Putin was quoted as saying.
Araghchi thanked Putin for Russia's support for Iran, and conveyed to Putin the best wishes of Khamenei and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian.
He said that the strategic partnership between Iran and Russia will be strengthened, and that the Iranian people, with their courage, are capable of resisting American aggression.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, Presidential Aide Yuri Ushakov, and Igor Kostyukov, head of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, also attended the meeting.
Representatives on the Iranian side included Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi and Iranian Ambassador to Russia Kazem Jalali.
