On 22 May Russian Ambassador to the UK Andrei Kelin visited the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in London to leave an entry in the Book of Condolences over the tragic demise of President of Iran Seyyed Ebrahim Raisi and those who accompanied him.

Andrei Kelin:

They will always remain in our memory as true friends and great minds, genuine patriots of their country.

I wish to convey our most profound condolences to bereaved families and all Iranian citizens. In this moment of grief we stand by our Iranian friends and share their pain deeply.
