Russia ready to help on Strait of Hormuz, Lavrov says Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said at the UN on Saturday that Moscow is ready to help stabilize the situation in the Strait of Hormuz and the wider Gulf region, as the US war on Iran drags on. "We need trust in the relationships between the Gulf states, the Arab states, and Iran. We need stable regional architecture," Lavrov told leaders at the UN General Assembly.
