Irans Kanaani slams EU anti-Tehran statement rejects missile sales to Russia

Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Nasser Kanaani has strongly condemned a statement by the European Union's high representative against the Islamic Republic of Iran under the pretext of its involvement in the Ukraine war.

Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Nasser Kanaani has strongly condemned a statement by the European Union's high representative against the Islamic Republic of Iran under the pretext of its involvement in the Ukraine war.

"I once again clearly reaffirm Iran's stance", Kanaani said. He added that any claim that Iran sold Russia ballistic missiles is a sheer lie.

While warning other sides against continuing their destructive stances and statements, the Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman advised the European Union against making allegations based on false information.

Kanaani spoke about the Western countries' approach to using the outdated weapon of sanctions, saying, "Unfortunately, some Western sides are addicted to imposing sanctions, a course of action that will not only be of no help to resolve problems, but it will also be part of the problem itself and will be met with a response from Iran".
