The Kremlin categorically denied employing Iranian drones to undertake attacks on Ukraine, despite widespread accusations to that effect from other countries.
Today, Tuesday, the Russian presidential spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, stated that the Kremlin was unaware of the country’s acquisition of drones from Iran.
In an interview with reporters, he added that the Kremlin does not have information on this issue, calling for the question of the Ministry of Defense.
Josep Borrell, the European Union’s coordinator for foreign policy, had earlier stated that the organisation would look into reports that Russia was supplying Iran with drones.
In a meeting with the EU’s foreign ministers, Borrell added that there have been rumours that Russia has been supplying Iran with drones.
It is noteworthy that Iran confirmed last week that it had not and will not provide weapons to any party to use it in Ukraine.
While lying to Iran, the White House emphasised that there is ample proof that Russia has used Iranian aircraft against both military and civilian objectives.
In recent weeks, Ukraine has kept track of a number of Russian attacks that involved drones built in Iran. Iran denies supplying drones to Russia, while the Kremlin remained silent.
The Kremlin disputes that Iranian marches were used in Ukraine.
