Trump says Putin offered to help mediate situation with Iran

US President Donald Trump said that, during their phone conversation, his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin offered to help Washington mediate the conflict with Iran, AzVision.az reports, citing TASS.

"I've spoken to Putin a lot, and he was actually very nice. He volunteered to help with Iran. I said, 'Not only [do I need] help with Iran; I need help with Russia,'" the US leader said at a meeting with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte on the sidelines of the alliance’s summit.

Earlier, Kremlin aide Yury Ushakov said that in the June 14 telephone conversation with Trump, Putin condemned Israel’s operation against Iran and expressed serious concern over the potential escalation of the conflict, which would have unpredictable consequences for the entire Middle East. According to Ushakov, the Russian leader voiced readiness to mediate between Israel and Iran.
