We warn official Tehran that if the fact of Iran's transfer of ballistic missiles to the Russian Federation is confirmed, it will have devastating consequences for Ukraine-Iran bilateral relations.

Axar.az reports, citing a statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine.

It was emphasized that Ukraine is concerned about reports of a possible transfer of ballistic missiles from Iran to Russia.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs called on the Iranian leadership to refrain from transferring any weapons or military equipment to Russia.

"The deepening of military-technical cooperation between Russia and Iran poses serious security threats not only for Ukraine, but also for all of Europe, the Middle East, and the world. We urge the international community to increase pressure on Tehran and Moscow to protect international peace and security," the Ministry said.

It was emphasized that Iran must completely and permanently halt the supply of weapons to Russia to prove the sincerity of its statements that it does not supply weapons to Russia, not in words but in deeds.

It should be noted that earlier, a statement released by Iran's permanent mission to the UN said that Tehran does not supply weapons to either Ukraine or Russia.
