Rosneft and that economic structure have achieved good understanding, the ambassador noted, adding that the talks on various proposals are ongoing.

Tehran and Moscow are engaged in active and productive consultations on the steps to curb oil production to stabilize global oil market, the Iranian ambassador told Sputnik.

"Consultations between Iran and Russia on this issue are ongoing, they are productive. The [Iranian and Russian] ministers, as I've already mentioned, met in Algeria, they are in constant contact. I think that the cooperation between Iran and Russia in this respect is very important," Sanaei said.
