Iran Did Not Supply Ballistic Missiles to Russia
World
"Zelensky personally confirmed that Iran did not supply ballistic missiles to Russia. Despite this, the European Union has refused to cancel its indiscriminate sanctions against aviation carriers and has now started a hunt against Iranian airlines. Their actions were based on the unfounded accusation that we supposedly supplied missiles to Russia. Now the European Union is using the same baseless excuse — the missile supply accusations — to strike against our shipping companies," wrote Araghchi on his social media page X.
According to the diplomat, "there is no legal, logical, or moral justification for such behavior." Araghchi also added that by limiting freedom of navigation worldwide, the European Union itself could face such measures in the future.
Earlier, a high-ranking EU official stated that at the meeting on November 18, the EU foreign ministers would approve the second package of sanctions against Iran for its alleged military assistance to Russia.
The first package was aimed at Iran's aviation industry. The Wall Street Journal reporter Laurence Norman, citing sources, wrote on social media X that the new restrictions may also affect Iranian shipping companies.
Iranian media believe that these restrictions may target Iran’s largest state-owned shipping company, The Islamic Republic of Iran Shipping Line Group (IRISL Group).
The European Union does not have the right to limit freedom of navigation worldwide and impose unfounded sanctions against Iran's civilian fleet. This was stated by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Abbas Araghchi.
