Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Hussein Amir Abdollahian on Tuesday said that Russia’s postponement of deliveries of S-300 surface-to-air missile systems has not had any negative impact on relations between Moscow and Tehran.

“Iran and Russia cooperate at the highest level. The continuous dialogue between our presidents confirms my words,” he said in Moscow.

“This delay and postponement of deliveries of systems such as S-300 complexes is unable to negatively influence cooperation between our states,” Interfax quoted him as saying.

He also said that cooperation between Tehran and Saudi Arabia could play a key role in stabilizing the situation in the region.

For his part, Russian deputy Foreign Minister called for developing cooperation between Iran and Saudi Arabia in order to stabilize the situation in the region, pointing out that the two countries are two important regional powers.

Abdullahian did not comment on a question on media reports about the cooperation between Saudi Arabia and the Zionist entity posted by Sunday Times, saying that the official Saudi authorities have denied them.
