The head of the Basij organization, the former head of Iranian intelligence, Ayatollah Hossein Taib, said that the Americans sent a message to Iran through Russia (before the elections in Israel) and that they needed such an immediate response from the Russian ambassador, that they requested such an immediate response from the ambassador. Tehran until Iran will give the answer.
Then the Iranian leader calmly said that they would pass their response to Russia, not the Americans. A short time later, there was a telephone conversation between Razai and Putin. General Rezai then traveled to Moscow and delivered the leader's message to Vladimir Putin.
Ayatollah Tab says:
"There was no rush. why? Because the 40-day war had a decisive role in determining the results of the elections in Israel and the USA."
