Regarding the situation in the Middle East, Putin said that Iran and Israel should stop the conflict and seek ways to reach consensus and guarantee the interests of both sides. Regarding the relationship between Germany and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Putin said that Germany cannot be a mediator in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine because the country does not maintain a neutral position, but supports one party in the conflict. In some ways, Russia regards Germany as a participant in the conflict. However, Putin also said that if German Chancellor Merz calls and expresses his willingness to hold talks, Russia is willing to contact at any time.
