/PanARMENIAN.Net/ Russia is regarding a proposal to impose sanctions
on Iran in connection with the recent unrest in the country as
"illegal" and "counterproductive", Andrei Nesterenko, official of
the RF Ministry of Foreign Affairs told a briefing in Moscow. The
Russian Foreign Ministry insists on the "democratic dialogue" with
the Iranian authorities.
"We consider all matters related to elections, as Iran’s internal
affairs. All disagreements must be resolved in the legal field, in
accordance with laws of the country", Andrei Nesterenko said, adding
that sanctions would entail "potentially undesired developments in
the country and around it," the Kommersant newspaper writes.
