Iran, Russia Discuss US Talks and Strait of Hormuz, Foreign Minister Says
The Strait of Hormuz is the world's most consequential oil chokepoint, so any Iran-Russia coordination touching it carries weight for energy and shipping markets well beyond the two capitals. The disclosure is notably thin on substance, which itself signals that the messaging is aimed at audiences in Washington as much as at bilateral partners. Whether the Lavrov meeting with the Iranian president produces anything more concrete than consultations is the open question worth tracking.
