Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Nasser Kanaani has harshly slammed an uncustomary statement by the British, French and German foreign ministers on revoking bilateral deals for providing air services to the Islamic Republic of Iran and imposing sanctions on Iran's airline, Iran Air, under the pretext of involvement in the conflict in Ukraine.

Kanaani stated, "The move by the three European countries is in line with the West's hostile policy and economic terrorism against the Iranian people, and will face the corresponding and proportionate move by the Islamic Republic of Iran."

The spokesperson of the Iranian diplomatic service, reiterated Iran's transparent and proclaimed stance on the war in Ukraine, saying, "As we have stressed in the past, any claim that the Islamic Republic of Iran has sold ballistic missiles to the Russian Federation is completely baseless and false."

Kanaani further said, "The US and the three European countries are the main sources of supplying weapons to the Zionist regime and are accomplices in the massive massacre of the Palestinian people and genocide in Gaza, and they must be held accountable for their wrong policies."
