Iran comments on information about transferring ballistic missiles to Russia

Iranian Foreign Minister Sayyid Abbas Araghchi said Tehran has not supplied Russia with ballistic missiles and that the information that the U.S. and its allies have is inaccurate. The official said this in an X post.

“Once again, the United States and Europe acted on bad information and flawed reason. Iran has not supplied ballistic missiles to Russia, period!” he wrote.

Araghchi called on sanction-imposing countries to consider how Iran can produce and sell what they say are advanced weapons under various restrictions. According to him, “sanctions are not a solution to the problem, but only a part of it”.
