During the phone call, Vladimir Putin thanked Ilham Aliyev for the efficient assistance in organising the evacuation of Russian nationals from Iran and in ensuring the delivery of humanitarian aid to the Iranian people from Russia via Azerbaijani territory.

While exchanging views on the current situation in the Middle East, both leaders spoke in favour of ceasing hostilities as soon as possible and resolving the active conflict through political and diplomatic means.

Some current aspects of the bilateral agenda were discussed as well. Both sides reaffirmed their mutual commitment to further developing Russia-Azerbaijan cooperation in various sectors based on the principles of strategic partnership and allied relationship.
