The spokesman of Iran’s Foreign Ministry has vowed that Tehran will take reciprocal measures after the new sanctions slammed against Tehran by three European countries over alleged supply of weapons to Russia.

On Tuesday, Nasser Kana’ani said that the claim that “the Islamic Republic of Iran has sold ballistic missiles to the Russian Federation is completely baseless and false.”
 
He said the new sanctions are a continuation of the West’s hostile policy and its economic terrorism against Iranians.
 
The spokesman strongly condemned the unusual statement of the foreign ministers of England, France and Germany with the Islamic Republic of Iran regarding the cancellation of bilateral agreements for the provision of air services and the sanctioning of Iran Air under the pretext of allegedly interfering in the conflict in Ukraine.  
 
Kana’ani said the US and the three European countries are the main suppliers of weapons to the Zionist regime and therefore partners in its widespread massacre of people in Gaza.
 
The US has also sanctioned several individuals and entities based in Iran and Russia over Tehran’s alleged drone and missile sales to Russia.
 
On Monday, Moscow rejected US media reports claiming that Iran has sent short-range ballistic missiles to Russia to be used in the war in Ukraine.
 
The Wall Street Journal on September 6 cited unidentified US and European officials as saying that Iran had shipped short-range missiles to Russia. Citing its sources over the weekend, CNN also reported that Iran had transferred missiles to Russia. 
 
Iran has rejected allegations of supplying ballistic missiles to Russia as baseless and misleading.
