ASHGABAT, TURKMENISTAN – Russia’s President Vladimir Putin vowed on Thursday to “do everything” to help end the Middle East war when he met Iranian counterpart Masoud Pezeshkian for talks ahead of a regional summit, Russian media reported.

The leaders of two of the world’s most sanctioned nations met after arriving in Turkmenistan for a summit of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) that starts on Friday in the Caspian Sea resort of Avaza.

“We are ready to do everything that is in our power to contribute to the settlement of this situation,” said Putin.
