The European Union has received information that Iran has provided Russia with ballistic missiles.
"We have verified information provided by allies about the supply of Iranian ballistic missiles to Russia," said the representative of the EU foreign policy service Peter Stano, Deutsche Welle reports.
As the representative of the diplomatic service noted, the supply of ballistic missiles would mean "a significant material escalation of Iran's support for Russia's illegal aggressive war against Ukraine."
"The unanimous position of EU leaders has always been clear. Brussels will respond quickly and in coordination with international partners, including new and significant restrictive measures against Iran," Stano noted.
