Speaking at today’s press briefing, Peskov responded to questions on current issues.

Other key points from Peskov’s statements:
- Russia remains in continuous dialogue with the IAEA regarding the Bushehr nuclear plant.
- The only effective way to ease the catastrophic level of tension in the Middle East is through a political and diplomatic solution.
