Russia Signals Readiness to Mediate Middle East Peace
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Thursday that President Vladimir Putin had held a series of telephone conversations with regional leaders across the Middle East, emphasizing in each exchange that all disputes — particularly those surrounding the deepening crisis involving Iran — must be resolved exclusively through political and diplomatic channels.
Peskov added that a prospective Russia-Arab summit could serve as a valuable forum for reducing tensions across the region, signaling Moscow's ambition to position itself as an indispensable power broker in the unfolding conflict.
Moscow Labels NATO an Enemy
On the question of Russia's relationship with the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, Peskov offered no ambiguity. He characterized the alliance as "hostile," asserting that NATO views Russia as an adversary and conducts itself accordingly — and that Moscow returns the sentiment in kind.
The blunt remarks reflect the continued deterioration of Russia-NATO ties, even as Moscow presents itself internationally as a voice for dialogue and de-escalation in the volatile Middle East.
