Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian is expected to travel to Russia next week for talks with Vladimir Putin. The planned trip was reported through a monitoring desk in Multan. During the meeting, the two leaders are set to exchange views on the latest situation in the region. The Middle East is expected to take up much of the conversation given the ongoing tensions there. Pezeshkian's office has not yet published a detailed schedule for the visit. The sit-down with Putin would rank among his most closely watched外交 engagements of the year. Analysts in the region will be looking at whether the two sides coordinate positions on shared security concerns. More details about the agenda should emerge in the days before the trip.
