/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Upon return from Washington Russian FM Sergey Lavrov
briefed on the basic topics discussed during the meeting with
President George Bush. `The Bush administration assured me that the
U.S. is not planning a war against Iran,’ the Russian Foreign Minister
said, reports the BBC Russian branch.

`The U.S. assured us that the presence of additional forces and
equipment in the Persian Gulf region is aimed at stabilization,’ said
Lavrov.

In his words, Moscow and Washington assume that talks with Iran should
be held via the UN Security Council. Moscow rates U.S. sanctions
against Iran as illegitimate and is also going to press for their
cancellation. `We will press for cancellation of these sanction as in
the case with `Sukhoy’, Sergey Lavrov underscored.
