Russia said on Wednesday the world was getting tired of endless threats against Iran and that bombing the Islamic Republic would not bring peace, cautioning that Tehran was already taking preventative measures.
Iran is approaching weekend talks with the United States over its nuclear program warily, with little confidence in progress and deep suspicions about US intentions, Iranian officials told Reuters on Tuesday.
The talks were announced on Monday by US President Donald Trump, who returned to the White House in January and has repeatedly threatened Washington’s decades-long foe Iran with military action if it does not agree to a deal.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Moscow was aware of the “quite harsh rhetoric” and that Tehran was taking preventative measures, and suggested the focus should be contacts rather than confrontation.
“Indeed, the world is growing tired of the endless threats against Iran,” Russian foreign ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said when asked by Reuters to clarify Russia’s approach. “There is a growing understanding that bombing cannot pave the way to peace.”

Maybe if Bolton threatened they would work.
Trump is Putin’s biggest threat.
President Trump said he’s going to take out Iran’s drone and missile factories. Bad news for Putin.
<< “the world is growing tired of the endless threats against Iran,” >>
Translation: the alliance of world’s worst regimes (China, Russia, North Korea, Iran) is threatened by the inevitable.
Let's try it and see.
Exactly.
Apparently modern Russians never heard of General LeMay. Or maybe they want to learn from us about how to turn a country into a pile of smoking rubble, so they say encouraging things to Iran?
Funny, it’s worked every time it’s been tried.
Tell me, Ms Zakharova, How can Iran threaten their neighbors with their bombs and bomb factories in pieces? Hmmmmm?
REMIND US ABOUT HIROSHIMA.
I guess modern Americans never heard of Zhukov or Konev.
No doubt that’s true. Especially anyone who thought Ukraine could defeat Russia.
