A source from the publication revealed that Putin was "not yet ready for a meeting" with Pezeshkian, and the Iranian delegation was given the choice: to stay in the waiting room or return to the hotel, and "Pezeshkian decided to leave the Kremlin under the pretext of performing prayers before returning for the postponed meeting."
Journalists claim that the President of Iran waited for the illegitimate president of the Russian Federation "for about an hour."
Iran International reminded that "Putin regularly makes world leaders wait for his arrival, which is widely seen as a psychological tactic of the former KGB agent." Journalists recalled that at one time, former German Chancellor Angela Merkel and former Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych waited for Putin for about four hours, while leaders from Japan, Mongolia, and Israel waited "up to three hours."
