Iran Press/ Iran news: In a message shared on his social media account on X (formerly Twitter), Araghchi emphasized that Iran's military cooperation with Russia is not a recent development and predates the ongoing Ukraine conflict.
"I want to make it clear once again: we have not given Russia any ballistic missiles," Araghchi stated, addressing allegations raised during a meeting with European Union foreign policy chief Josep Borrell and Enrique Mora in New York. "If Europe needs an excuse to cave in to Israel’s blackmail, they should find another story."
Araghchi also highlighted Europe's double standards, pointing out that "some European countries have supplied Israel with advanced weapons and have actively participated in military operations against Iran."
The Iranian Foreign Minister further criticized the United States' maximum pressure campaign, which continues to impact European businesses. "U.S. economic sanctions remain in place, and European companies are fully complying with the U.S. Treasury’s directives," he added.
