Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Pankin commented on Tehran's idea to create a gas hub voiced earlier.
"It is a matter of study by experts, indeed. It's all about the details," the diplomat said.
The deputy minister added that Russia, while participating "in various configurations," must ensure that its interests are not violated.
