Accusation against Iran Aimed at Legitimizing Shipment of Weapons to Ukraine

 Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanani said the allegation of weapons sales to Russia against Iran is aimed at legitimizing the daily shipment of weapons to Ukraine.

In a recent tweet regarding the situation in Ukraine, Kanani stated that Iran is “against war and supports ceasefire and peace”.

Referring to the “baseless accusation” that Iran supplied weapons to Russia during the Ukraine War, Kanaani stressed that these unfounded claims are made daily to justify the regular practice of shipping weapons to Ukraine.

“The people who accuse Iran are to blame for both the start of the war and its continuation. Iran is opposed to war and is in favor of a cease-fire and peace,” Iranian spokesperson said.
