Putin on Palestinian state And Larijani’s killing

Oct 1

Seyed Mohammad Marandi asks about Gaza and attacks on Iran, alleging genocide and recalling killed Iranian leaders including Ali Larijani. Putin calls for a viable Palestinian state under UN decisions, saying a durable solution requires addressing that issue. He condemns Larijani’s killing, recalls their personal contact and describes him as a pragmatic official with whom compromise might have been possible. Lukyanov adds a tribute based on Larijani’s earlier participation in the Valdai discussions. The allegations, assessments and counterfactual potential for compromise remain attributed to the speakers. This account supplies no newly agreed Palestinian settlement or nuclear deal; the interpreted leader name in the question is preserved without silently substituting another person.

Putin condemns Larijani’s killing, recalls their contact and describes him as a pragmatic official with whom compromise might have been possible. Marandi raises the death in his question and Lukyanov adds a Valdai tribute. These are an October 1 response and counterfactual assessments of diplomatic potential, distinct from the March killing itself.
