Live Report: Putin’s Annual Big Press Conference
MOSCOW, December 18 (Sputnik) – Russian President Vladimir Putin said Thursday that his visit to the Iranian capital Tehran is possible; it is currently being discussed through diplomatic channels.

“My trip to Tehran is possible, we are currently arranging it through diplomatic channels… I have been to Tehran. We have had regular meetings but the trip is important not for the sake of the trip,” Putin said at a press conference.

“If we find that we need a separate meeting [with the Iranian president], then we have no limits. We have no limits regarding any sort of external pressure,” Putin added.
