Iran acknowledged sending drones to Russia for the first time, but emphasised that it had given that country support before to the conflict.
Hussein Amir Abdullahian, the foreign minister of Iran, was cited as saying, “We have given Russia a small number of masters months before the battle in Ukraine.
In recent weeks, Ukraine and its Western allies have accused Russia of attacking Ukraine using drones produced in Iran, a claim that Iran has consistently refuted.
Iran consistently refutes claims that it gave Russia weapons for use in its conflict in Ukraine.
In a phone call with the Ukrainian foreign minister last week, Abdullah and I agreed that if there was proof of Moscow’s use of Iranian enlightenings, it would share it to us.
“If the Ukrainian side keeps its word, we can debate this matter in the upcoming days and we’ll take their supporting documentation into consideration.
The Iranian Foreign Minister rejected the allegations as “totally invalid,” and again denied that his nation had given Russia missiles.
On October 16, The Washington Post reported that Iran is getting ready to launch missiles into Russia.
According to Kiev, 400 Iranian drones have already been employed in Ukraine against civilians, and Moscow has demanded about 2000 aircraft.
In response, the European Union and the United Kingdom imposed sanctions on three Iranian generals and an arms company accused of providing Russia with drones.
Due to this problem, Kyiv chose to drastically cut its diplomatic ties with Tehran in September.
Iran says it has sent drones to Russia.
