Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe governments of France, Germany and Britain strongly condemn Iranian transfers of ballistic missiles to Russia and will work toward imposing sanctions on Iran Air as a result, the German Foreign Ministry said in a statement on Tuesday.
“This act is an escalation by both Iran and Russia, and is a direct threat to European security,” said a joint statement from the three countries shared by the ministry.
The three countries will take immediate steps to cancel bilateral air services agreements with Iran, it added, calling on Iran to immediately halt all support for Russia in its war with Ukraine.
