Sergei Shoigu, the Secretary of Russia’s Security Council, arrived in Tehran on Monday for a series of high-level discussions on bilateral and international issues. During his visit, Shoigu met with Rear Admiral Ali Akbar Ahmadian, the Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council and a senior commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
According to reports Tass and RIA Novosti, Shoigu is also scheduled to hold meetings with Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian and Major General Mohammad Bagheri, Chief of the Iranian Military’s General Staff.
This visit comes at a critical time, as the US and its allies work to prevent a wider regional conflict following recent attacks on key Iran-aligned militants, which have sparked threats of retaliation against Israel.
