Kyiv made the statement in reaction to recent media claims that Iran has sent ballistic missiles to boost Russian forces amid their ongoing operation of Ukraine.
"The deepening military-technical cooperation between Russia and Iran poses a serious security threat not only to Ukraine but also to the whole of Europe, the Middle East, and the world," the Foreign Ministry claimed.
The mission of the Islamic Republic of Iran to the United Nations said on Friday that the country regards as inhuman any military assistance to parties of the Ukraine conflict that would increase damage to lives and infrastructure in Ukraine.
Therefore, not only does it not do so, but it also invites other countries to stop sending weapons to the parties involved in the conflict, the mission said.
"The position of the Islamic Republic of Iran regarding the conflict in Ukraine has not changed,” the mission said after American, British, and French envoys leveled coordinated accusations at Tehran concerning the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict during a UN Security Council meeting on August 30, PressTV reported.
The mission also called on other countries to follow suit and end the supply of weapons to the warring sides.
