| Iran Denounces U.S. Claims of Missile Transfer to Russia as 'Ugly Propaganda' |
The United States has moved to sanction Russia because it acquired Iranian weaponry to use in the invasion of Ukraine.
As reported by Reuters, Antony Blinken, the US Secretary of State who is due for a trip to Ukraine, has accused Russia of receiving funds from Iran to buy missiles. This conference was held at the same time by Britain's Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs Costs, being a Commonwealth United Kingdom Countries David Lammy, on September 11, 2012.Blinken said, "Russia has now received shipments with these ballistic missiles and will likely use them within weeks in Ukraine against Ukraine."
Previously, the website of the U.S. Treasury made a declaration identifying nine Russian-flagged vessels that are associated with ship-to-ship transfer operations, such as carrying weapons off from Iran and bringing them.
In addition, the US, British, French, and German leaders announced that they would impose further sanctions on Tehran, including measures against the country's national airline, Iran Air, rather than such weapons received from Iran provided to them.
At this point, the Iranian foreign ministry denied every accusation made by the American side and called the accusation 'ugly propaganda.'
Nasser Kanaani, a spokesman for Iran's foreign ministry, reacted to the claims in a post on X, "It is also a false and degrading narrative peddled to mask the enormity of the illegal provision of military supplies by the US and its allies to endorse genocide in Gaza that Iranian weapons have been moved to other peace-loving nations."
Kanaani also made a post through the foreign ministry Telegram channel warning such support of the 'three states' Britain, France, and Germany in 'the hostile policy and economic terrorism of Western countries against the Iranian people' will be met by an adequate response – 'perhaps practical measures may be required' from Tehran.
