Telephone conversation with Prime Minister of Iraq Muhammed Shia Al-Sudani

The discussion pertained to the first Russian-Arab Summit,which was to be held in Moscow on October 15. Due to the fact that the active phase of implementation of US President Donald Trump's Gaza peace plan has begun, Vladimir Putin and Muhammed Shia al-Sudani agreed that many Arab state leaders that had been invited to attend the summit would find it difficult in the circumstances to go to Moscow in person. It was therefore deemed appropriate to postpone the aforementioned Russian-Arab Summit to a later date to be further agreed upon.

The Russian and Iraqi sides will inform the capitals of all Arab states about this via diplomatic channels.
