MOSCOW. June 14 (Interfax) -The situation in the Gulf of Oman is being deliberately aggravated, the Russian Foreign Ministry said.
"We are concerned by tension in the Gulf of Oman. We have been recording instances of deliberate aggravation, largely facilitated by the Iranophobic policy of the U.S. We call on all sides to exercise restraint," the ministry said in a commentary released on Friday.
"Yet again, we stress that there is no alternative to launching a dialogue for preventing further deterioration of the situation in the Persian Gulf region," it said.
