Putin says he does not want to discuss US-Israeli killing of Khamenei

In his first public comments on the Iran-Israel war since Friday, Russia’s President Vladimir Putin said he does not want to discuss the possible Israeli-US killing of Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

He also said that Moscow had presented ideas for a settlement to Iran, Israel and the United States, but “we’re not forcing anything on anyone.”

He also maintained Russia’s stance as a neutral party, despite its close relations with the Islamic Republic.
